What do you prefer : Burris Signature Select 3-10x40 Ballistic Plex or the new Bushnell Elite 3-9x40 DOA 600? Burris + 3.5-4 Eye relief which I feel is almost perfect for me Long tube Very good optics Simple reticle Rugged 48mm objective outside, perfect for my mounts - no rainguard - cost 459 dollars Bushnell+ Rainguard HD Very good optics (?) Long tube Less expensive, cost 330 dollars Rugged - perhaps a little bit short eye relief -complicated reticle, many unnecessary lines covering the target -? unknown diameter of the objective outside I want a scope with BP, BDC sort of reticle. The outside diameter of the objective should not be more than 48mm. |

I had a Bushnell Elite 3200 4-12x40 w/ DOA 600. I got rid of it because I decided that I didn't like the DOA 600 reticle. It's just too obnoxious for me. Given those two choices, I would definitely go with the Burris Signature Select.
However, if it were me I would also consider these 3 scopes that are in the same price range as the Burris. They have relatively subtle BDC reticles compared to the DOA 600. I would probably go with one of them before I went with the Burris. Just my opinion. http://swfa.com/Vortex-3-9x40-Viper-Rifle-Scope-P48334.aspx http://swfa.com/Sightron-3-9x42-SII-Big-Sky-Riflescope-P11092.aspx http://swfa.com/Minox-3-9x40-ZA3-Riflescope-P46136.aspx |

between those two choices, I too would go with the Burris.

I have had both, now I have several 4200's and no Signature Select. I do have a Burris FF2 that works well for the price, just didn't take to the SS.

I have a Burris 3X-10X-40mm Signature Select and I love the scope. I has worked great. Very rugged and repeatable. I also love the reticle, it is very clean and simple, no clutter. There is a picture of the scope on my Mato rifle in the firearms section under the Beretta Mato thread if you want to see how it looks mounted.
