Interesting. Thanks, 'shooter.

In what way(s) would you opine that the Bushy is the better scope?

It'd be damned hard for me to put a Bushnell ANYTHING on a rifle... but gol' dang it, I'm here to listen and learn, and get better, and if a (gag) Bushnell is the schidt then I will just have to beat the part of my brain that thinks that brand is crap into submission.

Thanks again and I'm hoping you'll elaborate.

i sold a SS 5-20 and bought a DMR, if it weren't for the [bleep] MQ reticle, i like the SS better.

i just sold the DMR, and have no idea what to get.

The LRHS will be available with an illuminated reticle this year.

Things have changed a little since your sebaticle..... it happens, I've taken a few myself.

I suggest you hit the search function hard on the Bushnell LRHS, both 3-12 and 4-WTF.... also the 3-21 DMR or HDMR....

Here's a 3-12x44mm, 30mm tube on a Kimber 84L in .280 AI. You get 10 MIL per rev, a zero stop, a capped windage, and an excellent reticle. Many don't like the donut..... but most folks grow to like it quickly.

Will do. Thank you.

I didn't just take a Campfire sabbatical, I had to basically stop shooting for a couple years there while my brain reassembled itself into something resembling functional. I also stopped paying attention to what was going on in the optics realm (obviously).

Making up for lost time now, shooting a LOT. That 7 WSM I built is slap-yo-momma accurate and is helping me chase down the last incremental flies in my accuracy ointment.... haha.

I'll look into those. Thanks again.

I'd agree on the LRHS (which Pat/scenarshooter and George Gardner helped Bushnell design). My 3-12 is more scope than my 3-9 SS or 10x SS, for a little more coin. I'm loving it. Glass is great for the price, and functionality is awesome. I like my Razor, but the LRHS may currently be my favourite scope.

Just get a nightforce and be done with it.

Where did you get this tidbit ^^^^ ??? Any clue when?

James Yeager put up a clip about it from the SHOT Show, so I'd guess a few months yet.
