As far as optical qualit goes, any one of the three will work just fine.  However, in low light, reticle visibility can be a big issue.  In that case a Elite 4200 with Firefly reticle would be a better choice than the other two.  Sightron is available with an illuminated reticle, but I do not know how good it is (have not tried it yet).

Aside, from illuminated reticle, Elite 4200 may be abit brighter than the other two.  All three are durable.  Sightron and Gran Slam, IMO, have better adjustments and larger adjustment range.  Sightron probably has the largest usable adjustment range.

That's an easy choice: The Elite 4200 hands down in that crowd.
