[tbighunter]

Has anyone tried the nikon buckmaster scopes?i just put one on my knight kp1.it's a 4.5x14x40 with mil dots.maybe it's just me,but i don't think it's that good of quality for the price.my bushnell trophy is as clear as it is for 1/3 the price.

I am not familiar with this scope, but check to see if it has an adjustable objective. If it does have AO, it needs to be adjusted to your eye. Personally, I have had good luck with Tasco and Bushnell. I recently picked up a NRA Sports Optics by Brunton, and the clarity on my scope is great. My brother really likes Redfield and Luepold. A friend of my got a great deal on Zeis, which he says provides the clearest and sharpest images he has ever found in a rifle scope. Sometimes the extra dollars are due to quality, and sometimes it is due to just the name. I think the biggest factors are being fogproof, waterproof and shockproof along with the warranty that is offered from the manufacturer and the coating(s) of the optics.
