Man get the burris fullfield 2! I posted the same post about two weeks ago, I could not choose between the bushnell elite or the burris. I actually bought the bushnell, took it back, and purchased the burris 3x9x40 ballistic plex. After I mounted it, it only took a couple clicks till it was on the money. I love the scope. My stevens shoots great.

Nikon or Leupold

I have no experience with Burris, but have never heard anything bad about them. The most expensive Bushnell I ever owned was around 100 dollars and it was the biggest piece I've ever owned. I try to avoid them at all cost.

Nikon Buckmasters seriesor Leupold VX IIvote here. I had a Burris Fullfield, but I didn't like the fact that the eye piece turns as you adjust the power setting. I hunt in foul wheather alot and you can't use flip type scope caps on the Burris. Otherwise its a good scope.
