bushnell firefly

[brybenn]

Anyone using the Bushnell elite 3-9x40 firefly? I'm happy with my other elite scopes but haven't tried the firefly. Does it help or does it block out vison in low light

help but the bars of the reticle are not thin.

i have one 1.6-6x36 and 3-9x40 and it s giving you a little more minutes for shooting for the legal time.

I have had several, still a 1.5-6 on my muzzleloader. IMHO they are the most fail safe way to illuminate a scope, you never have to worry about a switch/wire/battery failing on you, or adding extra weight. That said, you need to "charge it" with a flashlight as it is simply glow in the dark. The reticle is thick on the posts and illuminated, the crosshairs are thinner inside the duplex and not illuminated. It brackets the target really well without obscuring it.

Thanks. It'll be mostly used for dark targets in low light like bear or moose hunting. I may have to try it
