    Bushnell fushions ate the best value for money combo. Decent glass ranges better then the leica I've seen with my own eyes. But the euro glass is far Superior.

    To put it simply i own the zeiss rfb but advise people to buy the bushnell.
    Why you ask? Yes the glass is superior but the zeiss ballistic engine is next to useless as has a very basic program for drop with out the angle support and as far as the range finder goes the bushnell was marginally better but both read out past 1600.
    As far as last light quality goes the zeiss edged them out but only by two minutes on dark.
    my mates and myself have side by side compared the swaro the latest leica and old model along with my zeiss with the first model bushnell thrown in.
    The concensus was that the more expensive glass was better but not by much.
    I have used the latest bushys and they have lost the blue tint and have a better ballistic engine than the first model for a
    Approx a third the price from our local man.
    It all boils down to the money you want and can afford to spend but the reality is the bushys do the job well.
