I am not a Bushnell fan at all but but I do have aseveral Monarchs, matter of fact I bought these 2 Cooper Varminterslast week and decided to puta Nikon 5.5x16.5x44 on the right hand rifle which is a 243Win, the other is a 25-06 and is topped with a Leupold 8.5x25x50 LR. Both are good scopes. The Nikon has the BDC reticle , so far I have only shot 15 rounds through the gun and am waiting to stretch the distances and see what the BDC does out to 500 yards.
