If it works for you, go for it. A scope is basically an aiming device and at times it needs to be clear enough to verify points or other small issues when necessary. A sunshade will take care of sun flare issues most of the time but a scope doesn't need to be microscopically accurate to work fine in most instances. It just has to be tough enough to stand up to whatever treatment we put them through.
I prefer the Elite Bushnells for several reasons, but I have a Banner or two on rimfire rifles I've had for quite some time and they work fine for their intended purpose and would probably be fine on several of my deer rifles if I so choose...
I do have to admit I like higher end scopes, but I have a personal aversion to spending huge amounts of money on scopes like the $1500-$3000 high end Night Force, Leupold, and Bushnell LRHSi . I doubt my eyes could take advantage of the differences anyway...
