Hello HW members. Well after a day of hunting in the rain my bushnell elite 4200 has failed me. Inner lens is foged up. So I need help finding a new scope asap. Price range is 5-600 and looking at something with about 16x if possible, the bushnell was 9x, and where I hunt the xtra magnification would help. Like the leupolds and vortex but don't know which one and no idea on which reticle. Any help would be appreciated.
Nikon would be a good option as well. :twocents:

Sounds like you need to go to the store and see what they have in inventory. Sounds like you need to buy one today and sight in today or tomorrow.
Leupold VX3 in 4.5 - 14x40 with cds might be an option. I like their windplex reticle.

It's been mounted but you can barely tell.
Range use only, never in the field.
Let me know if you are interested.

Mounted my vx6 4-24 last nite. Twice your budget but nice scope. Took off a good vx3 3.5-10 if u dont mind lil paint missing - 2 bills it would get u by.
There ya' go. That is what I would do if it were me. I don't mind paint missing, because it's going to be missing paint the first time I get back from taking it out in the field anyway.

The only advantage of a 30mm tube over a 1" tube is that there is more adjustment available. So, if you want to dial up out past 1,000 yards, you'd be better off with the 30mm. There is no more light transmission with it over a 1" tube. :twocents:Thank you for pointing that out.
There is so much misinformation out there....

I've seen way to many vortex have to go in for repairs to trust them on my rifle. If a spotter fails it doesn't ruin your hunt. If your scope fails you might miss the buck of a lifetime.
Regards, Branden.

@Magnum_Willys how are you liking the VX6 4x24? That is what I am looking at but have yet to actually put my hands on one. The size seems a bit extreme but the few I have seen mounted did not seem overly big.
The VX3 would be a great replacement :tup:
