Bushnell AR Optics, 4.5-18X40 on a .25 gauntlet ?

[JeffB1961]

took the CP back to wally world (scope was fine , WW ticked me off)  ........ i've got a hawke varmint 6-24x44 i got to send back for warranty and i don't wanna wait for that process to have a scope on the gauntlet being delivered this Thursday . i'll get something springer safe later for the 34 .

i know looks aren't supposed to matter , but it definitely looks good IMO . it has side focus that i LOVE and the power is in the range i like . and there's the bushnell name/quality and i expect it will have better glass than leapers and as good if not better than my hawke varmint (currently sold as the vantage) . and i know the dots aren't true mill-rad or what ever and that's not a issue for me but i do like dots for guesstimation use . bushnell says it wil focus down to 10 yards , again fine for my use . 30 year "lifetime warranty" , i'm 58 soooooo .... i do prefer caps to protect the turrets but it's not a deal breaker for me .  i was considering the Bushnell Trophy 4-12x40mm SF DOA 600  before i found this AR for a little less $ but power more to my liking .

I have a AR 3-12X44 on my 2400KT. It was on my Trail NP2 for about 15,000, GREAT scope!!. I would order the CP from WW online. One day shipping if ordered soon enough. You should have it no later than Wednesday. For not price matching, they lose the FedEx shipping cost!!

WOW ! i'd say it's springer safe ! LOL . "great scope" i'm guessing means you liked the glass quality ?
