Re: nikon scopes vs bushnell
Gman, Check out Nikon's BDC Reticle Scopes. Perfect for whatever you are going to shoot. I have a Buckmaster 4.5-14x40 BDC on my Winchester Model 70 Coyote in .243. I use this with 55 grain screamers for predators and 90 grainers for Texas deer. With the BDC reticle and Nikon's Spot On Ballistic Program I can customize the BDC to my specific ammo. Best of all, Spot On is free to use. You can print different shooting information that gives you the corresponding distances for each BDC circle.
Check it out, Nikonhunting.com, click on Spot On logo.
I hope this information helps you out?
