I know the Bushnell focuses down to 10 yards (very important for when I use the indoor range), but the Weaver does not say how low it goes.
 
If anybody knows how low the Weaver goes, or if they can give an impression of how the two compare, I'd appreciate it.

I've owned 3200s before, but never a Weaver. Anybody know how they compare to that, or some other higher end scopes, like a Leupold VX-II?

Oh... just to make it more complicated; how about throwing a Vortex Diamondback in the mix?

Haven't seen the new grand slam scopes, but owned a previous model grand slam and thought they were pretty decent.  Have also heard good things about the viper scopes, the viper, grand slam and 3200 are at least as good as vxII.

the weaver will have a little clear glass than 3200's from what i've seen. few of  the guys i hunt/shoot with  own both so it's mixed feels from everyone which is better.

Weaver Grand Slams are considerably better scopes than Bushnell 3200's, in my opinion.
