I would go with Leupold or Burris. I have a Luepold 2-7x33 on my 870 Slug gun. I went through the cheap alternatives first. After blowing up a couple of Tascos, one Simmons and finally a Bushnell Trophy 1.5-5 I stepped up to the Leupold and it has never been touched since sighting in 5 years ago. (I could have bought two if I would have skipped the cheapies first!)
Most all of my guns are topped with Burris or Leupold. Burris gets most of my business today, only because they sell better glass than Leupold for less money. I can buy a Burris Signature series for the Mid $300's but can't touch a similar powered VX III for much under $500. Both have the same warranty, and I have dealt with both customer service (Never for repairs) and both were equally helpful.

I figure, pay the price now, or pay more later.
