Re: 1 - 6 power scope
Being as the two options you mentioned are both 1.5-6, neither. I would wait for one of the many true 1x options that are coming out right now with 6x on the top end. Leupold, SWFA, Vortex, and many others have options coming out to the public in the very near future. USO, Premier and S&B all have their 1-8x models coming soon, but the street release on those are a bit more unknown.
Having true 1x on the bottom end really is that big of a difference and worth the wait.
