Default Bushnell, Nikon or Burris?

I'm replacing my cheap simmons with better quality scope. I want to keep it around $200. I have narrowed it down to the Bushnell Elite 3200, Nikon Buckmasters or the Burris Fullfield II. Any thoughts, suggestions or reviews on any of these scopes? Thanks for your time!

i have never owned a nikon or burris so i can't comment on those,the bushnell elites are a fantastic scope for the money.i have never had any problems with there products,scopes,range finders and binos.any body that i know who has had minor problems(very few)the company stands behind there products 100%.i do believe though with any one of these three lines of scopes you will be way ahead of the game as compaired to that simmons.

I had a cheaper Bushnell that couldnt handle the recoil of a slug gun and it failed. Buckhorn maybe? I have 2 Burris Sig Series and love them. I have Fullfield binocs and they are outstanding and I can't count the times I have been told they are the best binocs someone has ever used. Friends/relatives of mine have 4 more Burris sig series scopes and love them and 1 fullfield scope on a 7mm Mag and loves it. I have never owned a Nikon.

Nikon Buckmaster, or if you can swing it, Leupold Vari-X II.

Good Dogwork and Good Hunting

I just sent a 3200 back to the factory,the recoil of my .300 Weatherby &quot;broke&quot; the crosshairs! That will be my last Bushnell and I'm going to put a Zeiss Conquest on the .300. In your price range,I would go with the Nikon...<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hunt Safe!
