I would go with the Bushnell with the fire fly cross hair. If memory serves me it has a larger objective also and they will help a lot in low light as well as the lit up cross hair. Keep the scope set on 2 power until you need more power. Plan on shooting from some sort of rest even if it is off your knee or other positions. Practice what positions you will shoot from before you try them during hunting. OH! and have a blast this season. Handguning put a great deal of more fun into my deer hunting and it will yours also. I have three scoped barrels for Contenders that I have taken deer with 10" 357 mag, 14" 6mm-225 and 30-30AI. I have taken lots of deer with open sighted pistols years ago but use the scoped Contenders exclusively now because I can have shots out to 200 yards or so now. I have all three with Weaver 2.5-8X28 scopes and they are really good, clear and reliable scopes. The only draw back of pistol scopes is their light gathering capabilities. I could still shoot a deer with the typical rifle scope 15 or so minutes later in the evening or earlier in the morning than with any of the pistol scopes I have ever used. In the past I have used Leupold, Nikon, Tasco and Burris but the 2.5-8X28 Weavers fits my needs better today. I would like to take a look at the Bushnell 3200 with a Fire Fly cross hair. I have never seen then in a pistol scope but have in the rifle scopes. They have a heaver outer wires of the cross hair than most duplex cross hairs that you can really see well in low light even if you don't light up it up. I have two Bushnell 3200 rifle scopes and for the money in my book they can't be beat. If somebody could make a pistol scope that would gather the light like my Zeiss and Meopta rifle scopes they would make a fortune.
