Redfields are american made, I have taken apart some pretty looking chinese knock-offs but there internal construction was poor, wouldnt have installed them on a BB gun!

Also, resolution is very important at distance. Think of it as how sharp it can focus. The more precise the lens is ground and the better the coating is, the sharper the image will be. How well it is put together too. This costs more money to make.
300 yards may not be that far to worry about resolution much.
