In no particular order. Again this will be on a .243 used for informal target shooting and small varmints out to 400-500 yards. Thanks again for everyone's help.

All 4 are nice scopes, out of the 4 listed I would probably pick the Weaver or Sightron. Nothing wrong with the other two, but I just am not a big fan of Bushnell, or Nikon. I noticed that the Bushnell is not a 24 power on the top but a 21 power. The Nikon is only a 18 power on the top. I would prefer the 24 power that the Weaver and the Sightron has.

Something else to consider, I am also not a big fan of Midway.One of my favorite company to deal with is cameraland they are a site sponsor, and the guys there are great to deal with They will bend over backward to make you happy and to gain you as a customer. They have the Bushnell for 419.99. They also get in demo, and other great deals all the time. Give them a shot you cant loose. http://www.cameralandny.com/

If not camera land try SWFA, They have the same Weaver for $349 ($20 bucks cheaper) The Sightron is $393.95 (.84 cents cheaper) the Bushnell $419.95 (5 cents cheaper.) and the Nikon 359.95 ( again 5 cents cheaper.) Looking at SWFA the have offers for free jacket, and bags with the Weaver, and the Bushnell. http://swfa.com/

I just think both companys are just a better company, than Midway.

Thanks for the reply. Posted on another forum and the Weaver is getting good marks there as well. The only negative comment I've heard is that the crosshairs and mildots are very thick, do you think this will be an issue?
