palo Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 I just bought a Bushnell Elite 6500 2.5-16-50 mil dot form a friend that was selling out a bargan too good to leave behind, so do any of you have any views on this particular scope good or bad also am in the market for a new sound mod for my tikka 243 light was looking at a T8 what do ye think of them from sound reduction point of view and is there a better mod out there, all the best.

cleaner4hire Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 I like the 6500s not the best glass out there but still performs well across all situations. I would stay away from t8 mods, there are better models around now which aren't as prone to rust nor as heavy.... They are effective though sound reduction wise. As to an alternative, it depends what you want, light, heavy, short, reflex etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyotemaster Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 The 6500 is supposed to be a pretty good glass for the$$. I have a 4200 on my Swift and it is very repeatable and really clear for a scope in the under $500 price range. I am sure it would not compare with Zeiss or Schmidt/Bender but it does the job for me.
