Hey guys,
What's the general consensus on the older Bushnell Trophy scopes? (Not the new ones that came out this year).
Canadian Tire has them for sale up here (3-9x40mm) for $159.99. That includes a lifetime replacement warranty. I don't know of any other $159.99 scope with a lifetime exchange warranty. I am thinking of putting one on my .308, but I noticed a few users on Cabelas.com game them crap reviews, although Chuck Hawks seems to like them. My local gunsmith has a poor opinion of them, but he thinks good scopes start at the Bushnell 3200.
I just want a serviceable scope. I don't need the latest and greatest and 98% light transmission or anything like that. This scope sounds like a really good deal. Is it? I figure if it can't handle the .308 recoil, I can always put the replacement on my .223 or a .22.
PS - I know these are much cheaper in the US. But I can't import them from the US, and besides, I wouldn't have the lifetime warranty anyway.
