Default RE: best scope

I have a Bushnell Trophy 3-9X40 mounted on a Knight 50 caliber Bighorn muzzleloader. I bought the scope new for about $100 and they can be had for $84 from Natchez Shooters Supply. I have Leupolds & Bushnell Elite's on my high powered rifles. I was thinking of taking the Trophy off and putting it on a .22 lr but in the 5 years I've had it I have had no problems and no complaints. The scope gathers alot of light and I've taken deer each year during our 1 week muzzleloader season. In the years I've had the scope the only adjustments I've had to make were because I changed bullets and powder charges last year. I had been shooting 120 gr. of loose pyrodex and switched to 150 gr. of the pellets. The scope has remained on zero with no problems. Believe me I have the money to upgrade the scope and other than a hunting buddy poking fun at me for having a cheap scope I can't find a reason to knock this scope.
