[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 1409081, member: 7123"] I'm not a glass guru, but I read a lot, shoot a bit, and have several 4200s, 3200s, and one 6500 which I love and plan to get many more of, so.... Wait a second - let me see if I understand your criteria: "Not being illuminated" - so is your concern that it's not illuminated, or is it the case that you like this about the Bushnell and have this concern about other possible subsitutes because you do NOT want illumination on your gun (i.e. that you do not want battery reliance, viewing that as a negative thing)? "Having too much eye relief" - Do you mean that your concern is that you'll end up having too MUCH eye relief, not too little eye relief? If so, then this does not make any sense to me. You just can NOT get enough eye relief on an AR type rifle (is that what you're using for 3-gun?). You can always easily mount it farther forward if you have initially "too much" eye relief, but you can not always mount it further backward if you have too little, and still be able to both (a) reach the charging handle easily, and (b) keep it low. I've never heard of too much eye relief being a problem, but especially on an AR where it's very easy to simply choose to put it further forward. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you (must be). Did you mean to type: ?? If so, then if I'm not mistaken, you are right - not only are there not many, there are NO others, under $2,800 (the Premier Reticles). Although I don't have one, I plan to get several of the Elite 6500 1.25-8x32s, and think they'd be an excellent choice for all "all-purpose" gun that's used out to 350-400 yards.
