Looking for a new medium power scope, with a 40-44mm obj , 2-4x on the low end. Gonna be used For plinking/shooting groups and calling dogs. Going on a compact 223 that won't be shot past 400 yds a whole lot. I'm really interested in the Bushnell 2.5-10x42 that's got a 30 percent;rebate, I can get it for $330 before rebate.
My question is how does the glass and tracking compare to the other 2 scopes I mentioned? I looked at the Diamondback hp and a vx1 locally and was surprised just how good the Diamondback was for the $320 price tag, plus it was a 4-16 which is more than I really need and the heaviest of the three but would be great for shooting groups.
Never looked through a vx3i but it's on sale and in my budget.
Not really needing any bells or whistles, A standard duplex is fine, but I want resettable turrets and dependable adjustments
Opinions? Other suggestions?
Also the Burris ffe1 scopes are intriguing but I'm not sure they are on the same level with glass quality.
