Hi to everybody 
I'm a Beeman R9 with Tarantula XL full power tune kit, (about 16 foot lb.) 
Target C10 to 30-60 Yards. 
Training on 1/2 C10 Target (5/8") to 10 Yards. 
Which to prefer among the following 2 scopes and why?  
  
1) Burris Fullfield II 6.5-20x50   (items# 200192)
2) Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x40  (items# 426243A)
 
The Burris Rimfire/Airgun 4-12x32 (items# 200394) are good for this use? 
Or is it small and few bright at the most enlargement?  
 
I thank you for the suggestions, regards from Italy.

Hello Beeman R9,

 

We recently had a walk in customer with just about the same scenario.  We looked at almost every scope that was suitable and he ended up with the Elite 4200 6-24 because it was the brightest, clearest scope and focused better at close ranges.  The Elite 4200 is also a quad power scope...meaning it goes 4x its original power.  It goes down lower and up high in power than the Burris, will focus closer and mounts down lower.  The Elite scopes are also airgun rated.  The Burris is little, in fact its the smallest 4-12 made.  It has an exit pupil of 2.67mm on its highest power (12x) and the Elite has an exit pupil of 3.33mm on 12x.

Excuse me Chris for my little knowledge of the American 

language, but I don't understand your perplexity.   
You have written more times that don't make business out of USA.   
I have pointed out that I live out of USA.   
I would like to be able to do from you my purchases   
because I repute you the best to the world.   
Unfortunately this doesn't find me possible because:   
You don't make business out of USA.   
I owe therefore, my despite, to try to purchase elsewhere   
My application can be useful to other American consumers    
of the your beautiful forum.   
Thanks of everything, I hope in the future for succeeding in purchasing from you.   
So many kindest regards from Italy.

Thank you for your kind words.  Our "U.S. only" policy came about for several reason.  The first reason was an insane amount of credit card fraud from International orders and we have to eat every single one them not the credit card company.  Second was the lack of participation by International banks in the address verification part of the credit card approval.  Third was packages getting lost or damaged (routinely) and having to fight for months to get paid off the insurance.  Fourth was International customers continuously asking for us to lie on the customs form so they would not have to pay duty and taxes, then getting mad because we would not break the law.  Fifth was International customers getting very upset of what the actual shipping charges were costing on high value shipments.  Sixth was the United States Department of Defense's minimum 10 million dollar fine if we ship any optic that the military buys (and there's a bunch of them).  We weighed the positives vs. the negatives vs. how much International business we did, and decided to stop all International shipments.  I hope you understand our reasons and will still visit our site and forum.

Hi Chris, certainly! 
I hold your site & forum extremely interesting
