I've got a Magnesium body Swaro 20-60 x 65 HD angled scope, 6 yrs old. Love it for sheep. Also have a little Nikon ED 50 13-30 x 50 that sees some deer and bear use. Hard to beat the Swaro!
I was up in the NWT hunting Dalls last week. Out of the 6 scopes in camp, all were Angled Swaro 20-60 x 65s. One was the new ATX and it appeared to my eyes to be very slightly better than the ATM HD (old) model. That should tell you something about what the pros prefer and use! All the guides agree the 80 to 90 mm scopes are optically better but refuse to pack the size and weight. One pair of hunters had a Nikon with them (a sponsor) but the guides complained about it.
Good luck with your choice!
