Thread: Need Scope Advise

just sold a bushnell elite, guess what? its exactly like the nikon. if you want pin point accuracy zeiss or schravoski are great but there are cheaper scopes out there that are pretty good too. i once had a vx2 on one of my guns and swapped it for one of the original tasco titan scopes. this was the japanese one 4-12 x 50.
took it down to richard wilhelm here in christchurch (pre quake) and he gave me a bit of poo staring before he took it outside the shop and had a good look. came back in and declared it bloody good, not as good as a zeiss but better than a comparable leupold.
i had that scope for years, never lost its point of impact, never fogged and the twilight seemed like daylight thru it.
guess my point is shop around, there are cheap scope that are great. 95% are crap but occasionally you will find a great one from a company like tasco etc that markets scopes not manufactures them
