Bushnell 3200 Elite 4- 12

I don't find magnification to be the primary problem (I find that many folks use more than they need for most any task), but rather a general lack of features desired for target shooting (for LR target they include: FFP, matched reticle/adjustments, ballistic reticle, et al).

BTW, if your Kahles is one of the discontinued CL models from CDNN it is a fantastic scope for the money.

Oh, I see what you mean. True very true. Yeah, that is the model Kahles I have. It is on a Thompson Center Icon in a 243 that shoots literally one hole groups with handloads. The first time I sighted it in I shot twice and thought the second shot was a flyer. This was at 100 yards. So the third shot I held it ever so slightly higher and it created just a lip on the previous one hole group. I went on to confirm the accuracy and it was easily repeatable as long as I did my job.

By the way, I live in Wilson, NC. Where is Huntersville? You can pm if you wish.

Just north of Charlotte.

I have a Kahles Helia CL 2-7x32mm that I am waiting to plop on something, just don't know exactly what yet.

I had an Elite 3200 4-12x on my Rem 700 SPS Tactical. Frankly, I was unsatisfied with the optical quality and eye relief. I sold it, saved up a little more, and then bought a Nikon Monarch. I'm happy now.

Yeah, I don't think 3200 and Tactical are a good match? 3200 for everyday field use is another story. I would not be using less than 4200 on LR and that's iffy?

to me any scope with more then 9x needs an ajustable objective or side focus to be really useable out past 300 yards.
