Guys I need help deciding which scope to go with on my Sako. It has a Bushnell Elite 4200 2.5-10x40mm on it. For years I've tolerated an uncomfortable eye relief because with the medium Leupold ring mounts, I could not take the scope any more rearward due to the objective bell touching the barrel. So I finally got a pair of Sako Optilock Rings which will allow me to re-mount the scope with proper eye relief. Before, I would mount the rifle naturally, and then I would have to scoot my eye forward to gain full picture in the optics. These higher Optilock ring mounts should fix the problem. However, I have a brand new Burris Signature Select 3-10x40mm scope that would probably look great on the Sako Finnlight as well. I have always loved Elite 4200's and it is a pretty good looking scope too. I think they both are excellent optics. But I wonder which one is more rugged, more recoil proof and dependable? Which one is least likely to fail? I know they are both very bright and clear from edge to edge.
Maybe I should have titled the thread: "Bushnell Elite 4200 vs. Burris Signature Select"
So should I just re-mount the Bushnell, or mount the Burris?
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
