like some suggestions as to which one of the 3 to get. 6x18x40bdc 4.5x14x40bdc or 4x12x50 i hunt from ridge tops from early morn to late in the evening
I'd go with the 4.5x14x40bdc. The bdc reticle could come in handy and the light penetration will be the same as the 50 as the diameter has little to do with light.
I have the 4.5x14x40 bdc. I love it. It has a bright sight picture and is really sharp. I use it on a Ruger M77 30-.06 and once sighted in it really holds up to all kinds of bumps and bag drops. I do the same type of hunting and this scope works very well for me.
How does the Buckmaster compare to the Nikon Prostaff. I don't want to spend more money just because. Can someone give me a good explination for the differences and is it worth it?
In reality, it really depends on the rifle you intend on using the scope on. If the rifle has medium or above recoil, you definitely want the Buckmaster. The Prostaff is a good "entry level" scope but the Buckmaster has better glass and better overall craftmanship. Remember, "you get what you pay for"
The Pro Staff is a good scope. I have one on top of my truck gun. But the durability, clarity and amount of light that the Buckmaster draws in are far superior than the Pro Saff. If you're wanting a scope to just throuhg in you're truck and go shoot some coyotes, the Pro Staff is right up you're ally. But for me all my deer rifles have Buckmasters on them!!! Hope this helps
The only real difference between the two is the light transmission and it's not much. They both have plenty of clarity for you to be able to see at dusk/dawn at legal shooting light, but you'll be able to see your crosshairs a little better with the buckmaster. My BIL has one on his 35 rem and it holds up to that recoil and my Buckmasters has held up to 270 and 30-06 recoil.
I purchased a nikon buckmaster rifle scope 3x9x40 some years ago for a browning a-bolt 270 wsm. the windage and elevation adjustments didn't work properly. i replaced it with a simmons aetec 2.5x10x50. i love the clearity of nikon products. i have nikon lens in my eyeglasses, nikon digital camera and a pair of nikon binoculors.

Sorry if this is too late, but the Nikoplex reticle is just Nikons regular crosshair reticle. It's not a Bullet Drop Compensating Reticle or a thick lined reticle it is just the normal one designed by Nikon.
I use 1 inch rings on a ruger M77. I lapped them before mounting to in ensure the rings got a good grip of the scope. Also, used service strength lok-tite on all screws. This thing does not move at all after numerous drops,jars and about 100 shots.
I WAS ABLE TO USE 1 INCH RINGS(THE COMMON RING ON 3X9X40) WITH 4X12X50 BUCKMASTER THERES NOT ALOT OF DISTANCE BETWEEN THE BARREL AND SCOPES BUT IT WORKS
YES, NIKON IS TOP OF THE LINE AND MY ONLY CHOICE PERSONALLY, I WOULD SPEND A LITTLE EXTRA $$$ AND GET THE 4X12X50 BC THE 50 MM RETICLE PULLS IN MORE LIGHT AND DAWN AND DUSK HOURS!
