Product Review
The Elite 6500 Series contains the world's most versatile riflescope, featuring a 6.5x magnification range, the widest in the industry. These scopes are ideal for hunters who want a scope they can use in the brush as well as on the wide-open prairie, from Georgia pine forests to the high peaks of the Rockies. Push/pull turrets with resettable zero make sighting-in easier than ever. The extended 80-MOA of windage and elevation adjustment travel (with .25-MOA clicks) make this scope a "must have" for the hunter who shoots a broad range of game and at distances that vary greatly. All models have a one-piecee 30 mm tube to deliver plenty of light for those perfect shots right before legal shooting ends, and up to five inches of eye relief. An ultrafine Multi-X reticle accommodates any shooter. These new 6500 models are flagship scopes of Bushnell's Elite line, with the highest resolution and widest field of view, as well as fully multicoated optics with Rainguard®, ensuring a consistently sharp, clear view even in the worst conditions. Rainguard® Bushnell¿s permanent, patented, hydrophobic (water-repellant) lens coating prevents fogging by causing condensation from rain, sleet, snow or even your own breath to bead up into much smaller droplets than on standard coatings. Smaller droplets scatter less light which results in a clearer, brighter view. Now the hunter won¿t miss the shot of a lifetime because of rain or accidentally breathing on his eyepiece. Elite® Bullet-Proof Warranty "No Questions Asked" one- year replacement (U.S. only)

I finally broke down and bought a high dollar scope. Am I EVER happy it's the Busnell Elite 6500. The picture's clear as a bell, it doesn't fog up, and moisture doesn't stick AT ALL. I had a little trouble adjusting the focus ring and the range control but that was easily overcome and the scope has been a FANTASTIC performer! I LOVE this scope!
One note, ensure you have a reputable gunsmith mount the scope and ensure it is completely level. Otherwise, the scope can possibly be a bit off line, thus the farther out your target, the farther off zero you will be. Luckily, I found a gunsmith with the proper leveling equipment and my Bushnell is DEAD on out to 300 yards, the farthest I've shot it. Obviously, if the zero holds at 300 yds, it'll hold out to the rifle's max range.
