I got this scope off a fella and don't know much about them. I do have a small sportsview on my 10/22. This one is a 3-9x32 and dont know how old it is. Just wondering if I should bother to put it on my 270? Is it junk? Should I just put it on my 22? Thanks guys

The scope can be used on your 270. But being a lower priced scope, will it take the recoil without damage? You may be better off getting a higher end rifle scope with larger appature as you can see more distance area and track game easier.

I have some 3x9x by 32 scopes and only use them on my .22s. Gophers stand pretty still compared to trying to follow game thru the bush.
 
Thanks guys. I am not used to a larger scope on a rifle. All I've ever had was the smaller ones on 22s. This is big to me and thought I might mount it on a 270. Where I hunt a scope has not really ever been needed. I guest my question really was, do you think a cheap scope like this would hold it's zero on a 270? I think i'll just put it on my new Ruger 22. Thanks guy's
 
Yes, i would suggest that is a good idea. I have a Browning 270 bolt and have upgraded to a Simmons 3x9x by 40 scope. The scope has held its zero after about 400 rounds.Under 1" at 100 yards. prone with bipod.
 
The lowest quality scope produced by Bushnell is the Sportsview (normaly not sold throught retail gun stores and usually available in combo packs like the Rem 710 or through stores like Canadian Tire and Walmart). The next lowest is the Sportsman line (Bushnell slowly phasing out this model as they want the Tasco brand to take this level of optics over). Next would be the Banner (OK quality on light caliber guns but I still wouldn't recommend it for heavier center fire). The Trophy line is next up and is usually the minimum Bushnell scope I recommend for heavier caliber guns. After that you have the Legend, Elite 3200, Elite 4200 and the 6500 in order of quality and price. Phil.
