I am new to any kind of nicer scopes and went and bought a 3200 4-12 600 DOA for a price of 405 plus tax and feel I was ripped off and plan on returning it tomorrow...I feel stupid for not doing much reshearching on prices before hand.


so how bad was i taken ?

Not very bad. I remember them in the 379-399 range years back so at 405 today sounds fair providing it is new.:)
 
The Bushnell Elite line with no numbers after it is the 3200 line now. New box, same scope.

Not true. It's fully multicoated like the 4200, not like the 3200 which is only multicoated. Also, they have a different (better) gas filing. The new ones are more like an improved 4200.
 
Just once it would be nice to read a thread and not have someone (or in this case - 4 people) bash the original post because they bought a "whatever". Yes, Leupold makes great scopes, but truth is for the money so is the Bushnell.

Oh so TRUE, but why stop with a lowly Leupold when you could just save for a little longer and get a Schmidt & Bender (sarcasm). The Bushnell will work just fine and the price doesn't sound to bad.
cheers and happy shooting!
 
I'm not trying to be argumentative, but why all the negative comments on Bushnell ?

I don't care for their entry level scopes but have had very good results from their 4000 & 4200 Elite products. I am far from being an expert shooter but I consider these to be reliable & a good value.
 
I like my Bushnell - that way when I miss "the shot" I can blame the scope, that if had had my Swarvoski or Zeiss scope I would have hit the target. ( gotta blame it on something - couldnt possibly be me, or maybe it was poor ammunition or the gun haha) For the record - I do like my Bushnell.
I remember when I was young and my dad would take his old Cooey 22 single shot - and with open sights kill a groundhog at 100 yards without a stabilizing post to rest the gun on. When I can do that I will begin to complain about my scopes:redface:
