Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
You beat me to it! Here's my post anyway.
Hey Guys, MidwayUSA has put the 3-12x44mm and 6-24x50mm Bushnell FFP scopes on sale. These prices are the best I have seen anywhere.
I don't know if these are the original versions of these scopes that only have 13?(17?) mils of elevation or the newer ones that have more. Either way, these are a great starter scopes for the money.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
If they are listed as Elite 4200, they will be the older version. There is no more "3200" and 4200" series. They have both been rolled into simply the "Elite" series. They do have the same spec scopes in the new series.
The 3200 series did not have multi-coated optics while the 4200's did. All of the Elite series now do. Few other changes as well.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
Here are the Bushnell part #'s for the new series of scopes.
3-12 ET3124F
6-24x50 ET6245F
Hope this helps.
As a side note, Bushnell has a great warranty on their Elite series scopes. Buy and try it for a year. If you're not satisfied for whatever reason, simply send it to them with your receipt and they'll refund your purchase price.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
Anybody know what the particulars are with Midways birthday club? I have one coming up soon (too soon) and if it can get a couple of more bucks off of one of these, I might just have to pick one up.
TIA
ETA: Found the information.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
Just snapped up a 3-12X. Seemed like a screaming good deal, even comes with a free gps compass/locator thing.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
I have a 6-24x 4200 Elite Tactical and a new 6-24x Elite Tactical.
They are very close in features. The Elite Tactical has a little more elevation travel, but is an excellent scope at the closeout price.
I have not gotten to do a full tracking test yet, but we shot a match blind with them and did just fine.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
much better deals to be had on Ebay for these. I bought my 6-24 almost a year ago for around $600
Here is the new style for $699 shipped

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
Make sure you are comparing Apples to Apples. I believe there is a cheaper SFP version of this scope.
The Mil/Mil FFP is the way to go. Now if they released a TMR-ish reticle in it, that would be badass.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
I bought one of the Elite 4200 3-12s on Midway's last clearance sale. It is my first decent scope and I love it. I think it's perfectly suited to my LTR. A friend has the Leupold 4-14 SFP and I think the Bushy compares favorably (with mil/mil and FFP)and cost almost half the price. I agree a TMR-ish reticle or even 1/2 mil hashes would improve this scope, but...

That auction seems low compared to the other ET6245F's listed on Ebay. Looking at the seller's completed auctions (26 pairs of women's shoes) and current auctions (bar items) it doesn't appear that this is somebody that typically deals in scopes.

Re: MIdway Bushnell close outs
Only the 3-12 is still available. All the new series tacticals (HDMRs) and 4200's I've looked through had excellent resolution, this is a great deal on a budget scope.
