That is a big difference in FOV at 1.75.  I think that you will be much happier with the Trophy. I have 3 of the 3-9 Trophy's and think that they are very durable and consistent.  The coatings.......you get what you pay for.  I get a lot of glare in bright sun.  In comparision to the Sportsman.....no contest.  The Sportsman is junk.  The Sportsman and the Sportview are what give Bushnell a bad name.  Trophy, Legend, and Elite are good values depending on how much you can spend.
