OK...I've made up my mind that I'm going to buy a 10ML-II some time this coming spring. I've been looking at scopes recently and I've narrowed it down to two. Sightron SII 3x9x42 and Bushnell Elite 4200 3X9x40. To me they seem like two of the better values on the market right now. Max I want to spend on a scope is $250. Sightron ~ $200 and Bushnell ~ $240. Scopes are similar in length and weight. I had a Sightron SII 3x9x42 and I liked it, but gave it to my dad when he damaged the scope that was on his Omega. I put my old Tasco World Class 1.75x5x20 back on my MK85 for this season since it was already sighted in for the load I am shooting.
I've looked through a couple of different Elite 4200's, (however, not specifically the 3x9x40), and optically they seem very similar to the Sightron to me. The only advantage I could see would be the Rainguard on the Bushnell. Don't know if its worth the extra $40.
These are the two that I've narrowed it down to. While they not be your choices, I'd appreciate any input from those that have experience with either or both.
Thanks,
Chris
