I agree. I'd like to see the Bushnell 6-24x50mm 4200 Elite Tactical reviewed by Mel. From what I've read it appears to be a nice optic. I really like the knobs since they're similar to Leupold's M1 style. Comes with a shade too at a decent price point. I just wonder how the glass looks compared to others in the $500 range. Bushnell has made some claims that appear to be ripping off Leupold in terms of light transmission and recoil testing. I'd like to see how it really does. 
That scope is on my short list for my next optic...right there with some of the Falcon offerings.

i have one and think it has cracking optics. ive heard alot of people say its better then some leupold optics and for the money its hard to beat i think.
the only downside to the scope i think is its small field of view but you get use to that anyway. i nver really go over 12 mag on it |

| I have one as well, that I just mounted on my 300 win mag, and so far no problems with the recoil factor. The lense compared side by side to a leupold mark 4 8-25, during daylight, the leupold glass was slightly better, but as it got darker out the bushnell was able to pick up better detail. Knobs are not quite as stiff as the leupolds are. The one thing that I don't like about the bushnell is the low amount of adjustable moa they give you with the scope. Mine has a total of 47 verticle moa. |

I've used a couple of the bushnell 3200 5-15x40mm tactical, I like them more than I thought I would. Pretty good scope. AO up on the bell.

I have one that I had to send back in to bushnell to have the reticle fix. One of the wires broke. Bushnells customer service was great too. Had the scope back within 2 1/2 weeks. I love the scope and other then the reticle braking have had no other issues with it. I have no idea either how it broke, but it lasted through 3 PCS moves and about 4000 rds. I would highly recommend this scope to anyone.
