I am trying to decide on a scope to mount on my Remington 700 BDL 30-06. It will be primarily a whitetail and hog gun, but I want to be able to use it for mule deer down the road if the opportunity presents itself. I know I want a 50mm objective to see good at dusk and dawn. I want a little bit more zoom than a standard 3-9. Here are my top choices so far:
Swift 4-12x50
$224.95

Alpen Apex 6-24x50
$292.00

Bushnell Elite 3200 5-15x50
$319.00
http://www.opticsplanet.net/bushnel...escope-rainguard-multi-x-reticle-325155m.html
Which of these scopes would be my best bet? Is it worth the extra dough to get the Bushnell or Alpen over the Swift?
Feel free to suggest any other scopes that you might think would be good for me. I want to stay under $300 if possible.
