[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 162791, member: 1290"] My buddy owns the Bushnell. We used it all last year. It worked good for everything out to about 1100 yards. I think the farthest we ever got it to when I was with him was 1350 or so. It does a few things the Swarovski can't do that I wish it did. I bought the Swarovski because I like to shoot as far as I can. The Swarovski gets fouled up in rain, fog and brush. In the rain mode you can still get decent readings out to 400-500 yards where my Swarovski will read 18-40 yards. Trying to get a read through the brushy landing is much easier with the Bushnell because you can set it to ignore anything less than 150 yards. I needed the brute long range power so I bought the Swarovski. My buddy really likes his Bushnell. The optics are very good in the Bushnell but not as good obviously as the Swarovski. If I owned both I would take take the Bushnell for real hunting hear in Oregon and I use the Swarovski for varmints and shooting boulders at really long range. By real hunting I doubt at this stage of my ability i don't have any business taking shots at big game out to 1000 yards. 600 to 700 in ideal conditions is my limit right now. If I ever get a 30 pound 338 Allen Magnum then the Swarovski is minimum equipment. [/QUOTE]
