I have a couple vortex pst (1-4 and 5-20) and a couple SWFA (1-6 and 5-20 hd) for the money you can't beat these scopes in my opinion. The Vortex is much lighter that the SWFA, it's built like a tank. I also have an older Nightforce 3.5-15 i think and Zeiss 3-12. Now that I have kids I would probably buy either the PST or SWFA before I would buy the later two. The one I'm really impressed with is the 1-6 SS SWFA. It's become my go to scope. I've gotten smaller group at 300 yrds with that scope (3"-4"). I use to think I need more glass, not any more.
Good luck on your purchase,
Jeff
