This is my first post here on this forum, I have really enjoyed browsing around. 
 
I just got in a Bushnell Elite 3200 10X Mil-dot for my Rock River AR from a local gun shop.  When the scope came in it did not have the gold lettering as shown on all the website's I have looked at.  The markings (Bushnell, Elite, etc.) are black and the turrets are marked in dark green.  The more I looked into online, it appears that I got the mil/mil version instead of the mil/moa.  Is this correct?  If so it is fine with me as the mil/mil combo seems to make much more sense.
 
I just wanted to make sure before I head to the range to start shooting.
 
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the OT ...71!
 
I have the new SWFA SS 10x HD and it has Mil-Mil,personnaly I think it a much simpler way to go.As far as Bush elite I have three but none with the green you speak of!If you don't get an answer to your question I would give Bushnell a call.
 
Welcome aboard & stick around.

I have four elite's myself, and none with the black/green... maybe some kind of "tactical" model? +1 with stickbow...I'd give bushnell a call
Sometimes my tongue outruns my brain and I say something I haven't thought of yet!

On the turrets are there three dashes between numbers or nine? IF three it is MOA, IF nine, it is .1 mil.
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

I found a 10x 3200 with subdued labels.  Looks to be mil/mil.  I couldn't find this scope on the bushnell web site.

Nothing wrong at all there. Bushnell have just done that lately with all their Tactical scopes. Even though that tactical page doesn't list that 3200 10x, it appears Bushnell has given that scope the blacked out treatment.
 
Recently bought a 4200 6-24x50 side focus and that was all blacked out.

Thanks for the replies. Look like the the marks between the numbers are set up for MOA. Only 4 spaces between numbers. Looks like they are just giving them a new look. We will test it out tomorrow to see how it shoots!
