    Bushnell Elite 4200 Tactical 6-24 x 50

    Got home tonight to find the scope had been delivered. Extremely impressed. The optics are like nothing I have seen before -- clear as a bell right up to x 24, no sign of distortion. It is very bright too. Side focus parallax goes from 25m to infinity, though in practice it's no problem seeing targets at around 10 yards with x 6 magnification. Turrets solid and positive ... no clicks as such just a solid feeling change to the setting with about 5mm of travel per change. Quite a light scope too in weight ... lighter than my Merlin. I'm tempted to stick her on the '95 until my Rapid arrives ... but...no, I'll save her for the real deal. I'll do a more thorough write up over the next week.

    These top end Bushnell scopes are really good. Look forward to your review when your Rapid FAC arrives!!!

    Yes, another thing is the quality of the scope is bullet-proof. Will be interesting to see how the Rapid gets on with it

    Thumbs up

    IME you have to spend another £600+ to get a better scope. Brilliant VFM

    Had a brief session with the Bushnell and the Rapid ... extremely impressive combination. The view at x24 is surprisingly good although true mildot magnification is at x12. The zoom ring is very smooth and well geared ... this was true too for my Bushnell Legend 5-15 x 40 scope. Overall very pleased and hope to be out again this weekend.

    For those who can't wait, "blue" has done a review of this. It will be interesting to compare them

    Seems like a very good scope will you be posting any picture when you do your review? My last rifle I use a Simmons whitetail classic 3.5-10x50 and I loved it for it's low light capabilities, This Bushnell sounds like a real beauty...
