Bushnell Banner 1.5-4.5x32 Rifle Scope

Didn't some of you post that you liked this scope and they held up well?  I looked at one at Bass Pro, and it seemed really nice for the money.

$79.95 I believe.  Seems a little high, but shipping has really gone through the roof.

I've got one on my .45-70 Handi, great scope, the fellas at MO love it on their .45-70 1895s, that's where I learned about it, had to have one to see what all the fuss was about, they were right on!! ;)

I installed a Bushnell Banner 1.5X4.5 -32MM on my Glenfield 30 today.  I really like this scope.

I've got one on my 20 gauge USH. Holds up great!! Good scope for the money. I think MidSouth has the best buy.

the ONLY Bushnell I use...and I have others  is a 1.75x 4 Trophy "turkey" plex....
I have killed 7 deer thru it mounted on my 870 12 ga Wingmaster Mag....I shoot Rem 3" Mag Copper Solids..just to give you an idea of what it will take in recoil...
Last season(06)I dropped my 870 22' from my treestand...the SCOPE hit twice, once on the way down and then FINALLY on a branch on the ground...the cantilever on my barrel bent...
I removed the scope and mounted it on my Muzzy...it is the brightest scope I own ...and I have plenty on optics 6x its price...
I zeroed my Muzzy in 2 shots...it held zero for 10 shots more....

Midsouth only lists the Sportview, not the Banner. You'll be hard pressed to beat TOZ's prices, the Banner there is only a couple bucks more than the Sportview and is a step up in the Bushnell line. ;)

Quick,
You got me. My bad. I do have the Bushnell Sportsman. I wanted the camo in 1.5-4.5x32 on my USH since I have the camo furniture. It's still a good scope.

Can't go wrong with that scope, as long as it's got the 6" eye relief... I've got 2 of them, with no complaints.. ;D
