Shaun_300 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 What's everyones favourite kind of scope? I really like the Bushnell Elite 3200 series scopes. I have two of them, 3-10x40 and 5-15x50. Both are really high quality pieces of glass. I'm used to the cheaper ones. I know they aren't the best on the market but they are the highest end I've used. I'm really impressed with the light that the 50mm transfers in low light. I'll probably buy one more. Gonna put the 3-10 on my .300 WSM and get a 4-12 for my .25-06.

RangerClay Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Nothing but Bushnell on all of my rifles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I was just looking on eBay and may pull the trigger on either a 3200 5-15x40, or a 4200 4-16x40 for my .25-06. the 4 power would be nice in the bush deer hunting, but I guess 5 is just one more dial up.

Strut10 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Pretty much a toss up between Weaver and Burris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stcif Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I only shoot Leupolds and Nikons after breaking a Bushnell and Simmons. The Bushnell and Simmons were cheapers scopes though not their best models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Think nikon is probably my favorite of all that I have used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texan_Til_I_Die Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 The clearest scope I own is an old Bausch and Lomb (pre-Bushnell) that's on my .220 Swift. It's actually clearer than the high dollar Leupold VX-L I've got on my 7 mag. Too bad you can't find those old B&L's much anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbgatech Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Leupold and Nikon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HUNTINGMAN Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I have allways used bushnell scopes with the exception of a leupold vary x2 I had on a 300 ultra mag I had once. I have never had any trouble out of the bushnell scopes for deer hunting,I've used the 90$ banners and like them. I plan on putting a elite 3200 on my new xl7 real soon.

dbHunterNY Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I've got one Remington 742 Woodsmaster 30-06 that I put an Elite 3200 3-9x30 on it. Otherwise they're all Nikon on my rifles; Omega with BDC for my ProHunter, ProStaff 3-9x30 on my Abolt 30-06, and a Buckmasters Varmint 6-18x40 on my Savage 223 rifle. The Bushnell Elite is a good scope though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coles Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I have a burris on my 270 and love it, have a sightron on my 300WSM and i love the clarity but hate the eye relief, i have a sightron on my 204 and i hate it, and my other rifles have 3-9x50 leupold rifleman's on them and i like the scope but hate the high rings. I put a nikon 3-9x40 buckmaster BDC on my girlfriend's 270 and i love that scope. might get a 4.5-14x40 for my 300WSM and a 6-18x40 for my 204. Maybe a 4.5-14x40 for my 22-250 too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearcat Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 I have two Leupold Vari-XII's, and a Rifleman. I have a Weaver Grand Slam, A Nikon Monarch, and a Burris Fullfield II. I really like all of them. The Weaver Grand Slam seems to be the clearest and the best in low light. It would be hard to pick a favorite. I have always liked Leupold for toughness and clarity, but the Weaver Grand Slam is hard to beat for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
