[QUOTE="LDHunter, post: 1328240, member: 105"] I've been touting the great glass on the Bushnell Elite 4200 and 6500 scopes for quite a few years and they've been my go to hunting scopes in the piney woods where ranges are usually under 300yds and the light can be dim on any cloudy day and almost impossible at dusk and dawn. The Bushnell scopes performed flawlessly but when you dared to touch the reticle adjustments you quickly found that they usually required a few shots to settle back down. That's what drove me to Nightforce for any rifle likely to be called upon to make a 300plus yard shot. When I have put the time, money, and effort into putting myself in a place where I'm about to shoot at any game, varmint or even paper way out there I insist that one click EQUAL 1MOA POI change! PERIOD! No excuses! That's what drove me to Nightforce. Zeiss and Swarovski make some great optics and I own binoculars and spotting scopes made by both and I couldn't be happier but when my money hits the table for a long range rifle scope I reach for Nightforce. YMMV... I have also had good luck with a couple of Leupy 4.5-14x Mark 4 Tactical scopes but the glass isn't up to my standards so I use them for target scopes and don't hunt with them. Nightforce glass is simply the best I've seen and I'm VERY picky about clarity and light transmission in my optics of all kinds. [/QUOTE]
