Ian...

Sure do. I have 3, but my friend has SIX (no wonder there aren't any used ones showing up).

It is one of the very best scopes I have even owned (and I have owned a LOT of them!).

Re: What about Burris "Black Diamond"?

CS,
Don't you wish that B&L Tactical was still on the market - sure like mine. Can even put up with the turning objective - great turrets and optics.
I am shooting the new Nikon Tacticals - they are going to be competition for existing stuff, have a trick or two up their sleeve.
Can't complain about Nightforce either, yesterday shot a 0.677" for five at 200 with a ROCK & the 3.5-15 x 50.

Holy cow!!

(pause while R-WEST reaches for smelling salts)

$1,447.00 for the 8-32x56. Man, that's a sack of cash. Are the Nightforce scopes available only from them, or, can I find somebody like MidSouth or whatever, that will have a better price?

Are they THAT MUCH better than Leupold, Nikon, Burris, etc..?

You can get the Nightforce's cheaper than $1441.

Re: What about Burris "Black Diamond"?

[img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Hi guys, I'm new here and quite the novice. I'll read alot more than I'll post but I feel that I have something to offer here. With regards to the B&L Tactical, It may have been reintroduced. I say may have b/c I don't know what the old one specifications were. That being said RIFLESCOPES.com has a Bushnell ELITE 3200 10x Tactical scope that is just new this year. Being that the Bushell ELITE series used to be B&L ELITE it might be the same one. It seems bargain basement compared to all the other scopes talked about here, it is listed at $189.99.

Not hardly, son... you can't get a good scope for $189 from anybody. The orginal B&L 10x Tac listed for $1895.00, and discounted for around $1,100... even when they were disco'ed, they were $899.

Re: What about Burris "Black Diamond"?

Check out SWFA.com they have pretty good prices. Also try Bearbasin.

The nightforces are expensive yes... but VERY VERY GOOD...

Don't get me wrong... Burris makes a great scope!!!!
