RE: Elite 4200 and 3200
Well, I might go ahead and give it a try. But dad gone 18.9oz is heavy compared to all the rest.
I have evaluated both the 3-9 Rifleman and the elite 3200 3-9, and the elite is the winner hands down. My brother loves them both. The Rifleman's optics have alot of glare, but for his 204, it worked out real nice.
Both did fail my fog test. I ordered them both last year for my brother. Both were sitting outside from delivery for a good amount of time in 15 degree weather. I took them in where it was like 75 and both fogged up for a few min. All my 5 or so Vari X III's I have had, a few vari-X II, and the one VXII I have passed this with flying colors.
But maybe thats an unfair test? Should be the other way around, heat up inside and take out in cold damp weather.
