What models are you looking at? What's your intended use?

Neither, since you will be using them most likely for hunting, go with the new Redfield.

Leopolds are legends for reliability and clarity to go better you'd have to spend a lot more on a nightforce or European brand scope, and they have a life time guarantee you really cant do better than that
