either one of those 2 will handle recoil and also have a lifetime warranty.  
I have a Burris pustol scope on my 454.

I have two pistol scopes. A Burris 2x-7x and a Leupold 2X. The Leupold I purchased in the late 70’s. Still holding up. Never had a complaint with either.

The main question is what do you want to put the scope on. Handgun, rifle, and shotgun scopes are built a little different.

let’s just say - pretty well every optic (red dot, lpvo and scope mounted) that I have are Vector Optics. Even the wife CZ Shadow or the SW FPC to the CAR15 carry handle tube scope or NV scope on the HK SL8.

Vortex is a solid choice once you are out of their budget line. Also the Sig is worth looking at. We have Sigs on a 300 WBY Mag and 338 Win Mag, Vortex on a 340 WBY Mag. That’s about the limit on my heavy recoil experience, no RUM’s or Lapuas
