Rifle Scopes Would you trade a Bushnell 3200 for a SWFA SS?

[One_Man]

I am considering trading my Bushnell Elite 3200 5-15x50 for a 20x SWFA SS since I plan on shooting F-class in the near future so targets knobs would be nice, although my 3200 tracks perfect. I currently practice at 100y. I dont plan on hunting anytime soon so its strictly a target rifle. Any thoughts?

A fixed 20x may be a bit high for long distance as mirage may be a factor, and w/o the opportunity to turn it down you may run out of luck.

I would stay with the Bushnell. I had a 20x SS. It is a great scope, but dark. When the mirage kicks up, its nice to be able to turn down the mag and "see through" it.

The numbers are just stacked against the 20x42.

42/20 = 2.1mm

Scopes with 2mm or less exit pupils are high noon bench scopes for the most part.

The 10x or 16x would be better suited but honestly the Elite 3200 is a fine scope, especially if you have this one.

And that is the opinion of the guy trying to sell the ss scopes. Sounds like Chris will "tell you like it is" and is not worried about the almighty dollar. Good business practice.
