It's great for what it is, an "inexpensive" spotter wit a reticle. I've used one for over a year now. The glass isn't great but it's usable, it doesn't pick up trace quite as easily as a Leupold Mk4 in the same atmospheric conditions(I looked through both side by side) but the Mk4's msrp is something like 4 times that of the Bushnell, haha. Nonetheless it works well, much better for watching trace than even a high end rifle scope ( I have a few) and the reticle is great for calling corrections. Ads far as the form factor goes, I have no complaints wit how the spotter functions. It's nice that they include the rails with it (they're a $500 add on with the higher end Bushnell LMSS) as I have an attachment for my LRF on the side and a red dot on top. The cover that comes with it is sufficient unless you want to use the rails with the cover on, then it's useless. Triad Tactical down in the States make a great cover for the spotter that lets you use the rails with the cover on, it's a worthwhile upgrade. At the end of the day, I believe the next cheapest spotter with a reticle is something like $1k more, the Legend Tactical is a pretty good value, especially with the 20% off deal going on now.
