    Swapped scopes again - now a Bushnell Elite 3200 w/ FireFly

    As much as I liked the Bushnell Trophy 1.75-4x32 shotty scope, I couldn't stand the AP camo finish. I returned the scope and picked up a Bushnell Elite 3200 3-9x33 with the FireFly reticle. Although the eyebox isn't as buttery as thr shotty scope, it is still much easier and faster to use than a high-mag scope. The FireFly reticle is cool in that it glows green with a quick burst from a flash light; I presume the reticle is coated with some sort of luminescent similar to what watch faces use.

    Very nice scope! Here are some pics:

    Just on aesthetics alone, that's a big improvement over the shotgun scope! Looks like it belongs and it's nice and low.

      Yeah - the shotgun scope was too stubby and with low-mount rings, the magnification ring didn't clear the scope mount; the only other units I had were the tall ones. This looks much much better, but hell if I didn't see a nice sightmark for sale that would fit perfectly in the HS 30mm rings I just got in the mail....

        Here's the best pic of the firefly reticle that I could manage - It was not easy keeping the camera still for so long as it tried to gather the light.
