Trying to decide between these two and don't have any personal experience with either. Which has the better glass and overall quality?

 

Sightron

 

Bushnell

I currently have the 4200 on my rem 700, love the scope, very good glass, and the range is perfect, shot 300yds today @ steel plates and it was easy.. The side focus is a nice feature.. can't blame this scope for a bad shot

I am more than pleased with my 4200 Elite. I have the 30mm tube with a 50mm objective lens. Very good glass. That being said, I also have a Sightron II that is an impressive scope. Little hard to compare since the 4200 is a 6-24 variable and the Sightron is a fixed power (6X) Hunters Benchrest scope. Sightron uses an erector system like that used in the Weaver T-series (that's good). I think I'd probably go for the Bushnell - given the choices you present.

 

I'd make sure it's in stock before you order. Also you may want to look around. I mention these two things because I believe the 3200 & 4200 are being discontinued, so many places have them at great prices - likewise, many places are sold out.

 

Good luck with whatever choice you make.

 

Adios,

I have the 4200 for my remington 700. Really nice scope.

The 4200's and 3200's have been discontinued. There a few still available and at close out prices. The 6-24x40 4200 is $500 and the Sightron 6-24x42 is $475 with rebate. I hate these kinds of decisions!
