I am looking at this scope for my 35 whelens. I have been told it has decent glass and a 5 inch eye relief, but is the bushnell elite 3200 better.
I do not condone what i do but i will not deny myself the pleasure

Do you really want to put something on your rifle that says "bone collector" on it?

the elite will have the rainguard feature which the trophy will not.  It will be a better scope.  that said there is possibly better out there than that.  What are you looking to spend?

With the Whelen you're gonna need eye relief.  That should be a major consideration when choosing the scope.

Forgot to add that my Remy 700 Classic wears a Leupy Vari-X III 3.5x10x40.  Plenty of eye relief.

I can't think of a better, more affordable scope for the whelen.
