This in Moa or mils ?

Bushnell doesn't list this scope on their website. What does the reticle look like, where is the glass from?

PaveHammer · Apr 13, 2020

These are interesting optics, as it's one of Bushnell's only 34mm scopes, but that G4 Illuminated Ultra reticle is extremely difficult to find any information on. Can you take a photo of the reticle from the side of the box, or the manual?

These seem like a great deal, especially with the rebate. The reticle looks more or less like a regular Plex reticle with an illuminated center dot. I can't find anything describing the reticle subtensions or dot size.

Was able to find a link to a Swedish website(make sure you hit translate to english) Unless you are Greta Thunberg of course.

Pretty sure these were intended for European countries, I’ve never seen these before now. They aren’t even on the Bushnell website.

ARCANGEL · Apr 13, 2020

That does look interesting, especially with the rebate.

Was interested until I did a little digging... They are listed as weighing 700 grams or 24.7 ounces. Pretty hefty for a lpvo without a lot of features.

I think I might try one on my Stag 10 for hunting.....my math says approx. $450CND all in cost after shipping, tax and rebate. Not bad for ED glass

It's got a 34mm tube with a 30mm objective lens!

That's a LOT more light coming through compared to the industry "standard" LPVOs with 30mm tubes and 24mm objective. Yeah it's heavier, but it's gonna be a great dusktime scope - if the glass is high quality. I've never owned a bushnell so I can't comment in that regard, but the technical specs imply it should transmit light really well.

@durham outdoors. Hows the glass look outside, can you give us preliminary feedback? Super interested given what has been said above.

Order in, 1-8x for my combination gun 12/30-06. Not much info on this model out there but for under $500 I’ll roll the dice for a 1-8x...

Dime · Apr 14, 2020

For those interested. The forge scopes are pretty awesome I’ve got two with 30mm main tubes and they are pretty awesome for the money. I’m not affiliated with Durham outdoors or Bushnell I just have experienceo with Bushnell forge optics

Order placed. Will go on my FN FNAR competition rifle.

Wonder if Bushnell have add-on turrets for these.

spl01t77 · Apr 14, 2020

put my order in, wasn't easy finding rings but we'll see how it turns out.

Benfica · Apr 16, 2020

Where to mail the coupon?
