Anybody seen anything on these yet? If this has been brought up I'm sorry I missed it. I read somewhere that they are 2.5-16(42mm & 50mm) and 4.5-30X50. They will have 30mm tubes and 80-100MOA(or inches) adjustment.

4.5-30x?!?! If this is true, and they have that much adjustment, these may become the new long range scope! I have not heard of an Elite 6500 though.

It's true! Holy cow that's an amazing adjustment range! Cheaper than comparable scopes! I want one!

All I can say is, Its about time. I thought these companies would never figure out how to build a real long range scope. I have read that Sightron is making a real cool sounding long range scope, too.

I have been to the Bushnell website, but I was unable to find any information on this scope.
Do any of you guys have any more information on these new Bushnell scopes?

I suppose they will sell well as will the Leuy VX-IIIs but not to be mean, I think these are in the "settlefur" category.

However, available funds still seem to drive things.
