Need to scope my Remington 783 Tactical in .223. I've narrowed it down to these two as I don't want to spend very much money on this scope. I've never owned a Burris but I have several Bushnells and none have had any issues. Please share your thoughts...
I really like the Burris scopes. I have used a Droptine quite a bit recently and an older Fullfield F1 (I think) - good scopes, tough, good glass.
My only concern with the E1 was that the reticle was very fine in SFP. I had the same reticle in a FFP Veracity and it was great - simple enough to use and not overly cluttered.
The E1 is a nice trim scope.
I don't have any experience with the Bushnell Trophy Xtreme line however I am strongly considering a Bushnell Nitro in the same magnification for a Ruger 77/17 in 17SWM.
