For target shooting up to 600 yards but most of the time at around 300 yards or so. It will so be use as a hunting scope at about 200 yards.

I'd go with the Leupold. Check prices on one of the VX2. I think they're a little better quality.

The optics and warranty are great with Leupold.
Most people do fine hunting with a 3X9, but I wouldn't go higher than 10 unless you're more interested in target shooting. The scope starts getting heavier and more expensive with higher power. I try to stay as light as possible for hunting.

Leupold VX2 glass is not all that great. Leupold glass quality in general is poor.

Other, better options: Sightron III, Vortex Viper/Razor, Bushnell 4200, Zeiss Conquest.
