    Best rainguard type coatings available?

    Hi all
    I was in the Kawekas in November and the weather was a little damp and I couldn't shoot a deer 20m in front of me due to the wet rear lense of my scope which was totally blurred. A bit gutted I was! I came home a got a Bushnell scope I had and got it very wet and could see through it no problem at all, if I had that scope with me I am sure my pack would have been full of venison. Bushnell have Rainguard and now Exo, and I was hoping the members here might be able to shed some light on what other brands have coatings for repelling water and are able to be seen through, and your considered opinions of their effectiveness would be most interesting and appreciated.
    Cheers
