skb2706Re: Scope field test***Less expensive scopes
of the ones you have listed I have experience with the Bushnell 3200 Elite and specifically the 10x fixed. Saw one at a gunshow and really liked it but didn't buy. Ordered one from Midway last summer and think its the best "under $200" scope you can buy. Accurate target turret adjustments, very clear optics, rainguard that seems to work well and nice compact size for $184.
Kicks butt on prairie dogs. I would buy one again and I have several Burris, Leupolds.

RicochetMy scopes, which I'm happy with, are all cheaper than the ones you mention.

jbokI know a little about the better scopes, I have all Leupold and Nikon scopes on my rifles now. I need some "in the field test" info on the less expensive scopes. 10X to 16X power range, fixed or variable. Nikon Buckmaster, Bushnell 3200, 4200, Simmons A-Tec, Sightron, or the SWAF Super sniper 10X & 16X. Using on a 223. Good and bad reports welcome.
