Practically all of my LER handgun scopes are Bushnell or B & L. Some are 30+ years old and still going strong. My regular big boomers all have Bushnell Elite 2x6 scopes. As I am sure you all know this fine piece of optics is now out of production. One of the reasons I like these scopes is the long eye relief they give me as I have long arms. I am not shopping today but I am often asked my opinion on what to buy. I have suggested the Bushnell Elite 2x6 or the Trophy for mild recoil guns for those on a tight budget. For those of you with knowledge in this area what are the viable options? Give us the rundown on the following:
Leupold
Nikon
Weaver
Others you consider durable for heavy recoil.
Thanks in advance.
