I am getting a Bushnell Elite 3200 2-6x32 with Firefly reticle soon and was wondering how well these scopes work and hold up.
I plan to put it on a 7mm08 Encore.


Thanks,
Shawn

Have one on my 357 Max. I don't have enough rounds thru the gun to tell if it will hold up, but I like it alot. Very clear and bright. Eye relief is very constant thru the powers.

i have a couple of the lesser 2x6 trophy models n like them a great deal for the money. one has been riding a pretty stiff recoiler....35rem. the other is on a 300 win mag, but wears an ott brake.

i'm gonna guess yer in good hands, although for the money the elite model costs, i personally prefer the burris 2x7 for it's extra field of view.
another main difference between the burris n bushnell will be that the burris shortens in eye relief as you power up, n the bushnell does not.
i personally have no trouble, in most cases, with either one.....but....
i do know that shootin creedmore position in sillywets will be much easier with a scope that does not shorten in eye relief.
