Did this question just get asked a little bit ago...or do I need to slack up on the Evan Williams? Either one will do fine, but I'd probably get the Bushnell just for the heck of it. |

Both are great scopes. If you want a BDC reticle go with Nikon if you want rainguard lens coatings go with the 4200.

I'd go with the 4200 (which I recently did), especially since it has the Rainguard coating. The optics are pretty nice, and it is a good looking scope.

I only have experience with the 3-9x40 in both flavors. I think it's a toss up there.

Either. The 4200 has rainguard, the Monarchs have much better eye relief. You decide which is more important to you.
