If you get chance to look through one at a shop, there seems to be a world of differnce between that and the ones at the vickers stand.

The leupold is a good scope but i found the eye relief difficult and the field of view narrow in comparison the actual clarity of the optics in normal day light is about the same but in murky conditions the bushnell seems better than the leup or the ziess.

At £699 retail I would not have bought one, but for sub £490 UK supllied its a very very good buy.

The MTC is a very good scope with a nice reticule for the money its the best scope by far in that price bracket but does not compare with the bushnell or the others mentioned.

Thanks

It's these differences that worry me about buying from the US, you can't look at the product or compare it with similar products to see which is better suited. It's a shame prices are so high in the UK and many of us have to settle for a Chinese special
