Burris 4.5-14x32 Short Mag vs Bushnell 3-9x40 Elite Rifle How do these two compare. I have a 4200 Elite 3-9X40 but I'm not sure how the new Elites compare to the older 4200s. The Burris has AO and the Elite Side Focus. Going on a Savage 9417 in 17HMR. Mostly interested in the glass of these two.

The Burris Short Mag, wait the one I had, was the only scope I ever traded. There was a constant haze and the CS at Burris was excitable. No make that unresponsive. My Burris EuroDiamond 3-12X on my 17HMR is a joy. Superb glass and focuses down to 30 yds. As far down as I checked maybe closer. This garbage of the 17HMR being a 300yd cartridge is just that, garbage. If on the very best windless day you can get out to 175yds, well good for you. How small the target and how many shots? Take at look at a ballistic table and check out the drop per 10 yards after 100 yds.
