Nikon 6-24x50 VS Bushnell Elite 6-24X50 Comments PLEASE

Hello ALL, got my varmint rig together, now working on large game scope for my new Sendero. What are your thoughts on these two. Which is brighter, etc. Your thoughts and suggestions are welcome.

Others in the hunt are:
Meopta Meostar 3-12x56
Burris Black Diamond 6-24x50 30mm

PLUS ANYTHING YOU ALL SUGGEST. You are all so much more knowledgeable than I, as I am really just now getting into shooting/reloading, anotherwords... learning more than how to pull the trigger So I rely heavily on your opinions. PLEASE post any thoughts.

Thank You - Rod

You don't have any Leupolds listed. Any particular reason why?

I really like my Buckmaster 6-18 x 40 on my 300 WM, nice target type turrets are included in the box. Pretty bright and has 50 MOA of adjustment with 1/8" clicks. You might jump on the website for nikon, for the money I like it better than my Leupolds.

Go for either one. They both should be on par with leupold LR at half the price. I've been trying to order the new nikon tactical and their aren't any to be found. You can get the 4200 though.

The Nikon 6x18x40 SF are on sale at MidwayUSA for $259 just thought id put that out there. Seems like a good scope at a great price.

Aloha!!!

The Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x50, 30mm tube and mil-dot reticle has had nothing but good revues. I'm probably going to get it for my next rifle.
