For some reason I am getting it into my head to buy one of these, Bushnell Elite 6500 4.5-30x50 Mildot.

 

Does anyone own, or have first hand experience of any of the 6500 range or specifically this one of course.

 

Your views, good, bad or whatever appreciated.

 

Cheers

I had one for a day, it wasn't up to much tbh. I think I may have had a faulty one, everyone raves about them normally. The one I had ran out of adjustment to zero my CZ, went distinctly milky at the top end and I would say was not worth the money.

 

I have the 4200 as you know, in 4-16x50 variety, and that has been excellent. Tbh I think you could likely save some money with the 6-24x40 4200, which can also be had with mildots and is one-inch tube so will work with the mounts you already have.

 

Failing that, we may be able to do business on my Leupold 6-18x40 Mark 2, which is also mildot... :yes:

I ran one on my .223 and .243, They are an excellent bit of glass, i was very surprised at the quality of the lenses & they are very good in low light . Myself and a friend used one side by side with a nightforce and could honestly not tell the difference.

They are maybe not up to the quality of Ziess or Schmidts, but i could not fault mine

 

I also think they are better than Leupolds when it comes to low light ( i have had several loopys)
