difference between a Bushnell or Sightron?

[dfraser]

Hi all,

If you were to choose between a Sightron STAC 4/20x50 or a Bushnell Elite Tactical 4/26x50, which would you choose?

Kinda stuck between these 2.

Regards

Different factorys in China?

Sightrons are manufactured in Japan, at least their mid to high end scopes.

Sightron. I already have a SIIISS 6-24×50mm and it easily compares to glass costing much more.

Bushnell elites are not Chinese scopes but are quality Japanese scopes.

I myself have never owned a sighteon but I do have a bushnell elite 6500 2.5-16 and an elite tactical ERS 6-24 FFP. Both are fantastic scopes

Th lower end ones are made in the Phillipines. My STAC 3-16 is made there.

Let's call quality, same same, for arguement sake.
Sightron has wider fov
Elite has exsposed turrets, Sightron uses caps.
Bushnell has a courser parallax adjustment, Sightron is so fine it's too fine.
Do they offer like reticles, do you have a preference?

I'd feel comfortable buying either. Have a closer look at the features, before you choose.
