Say it aint so. Doug posted it on another forum. What the heck? My favorite dialing hunting scope by a long shot. Seems like a lot of product development for only a few years production. Whats the story?

I was just reading a little closer. They discontinued the entire line. The 4.5-18 LRTSi is all they have any remaining inventory of. idiots!

I just spoke with Belton at Bushnell and he says they are releasing a replacement to the LRHS in June. He couldn’t tell me much about it but said it is supposed to be an upgrade from the LRHS. He said they will continue to produce the LRTS.

A 3-12 with an illuminated dot right smack in the middle of the "circle of death" would be desirable.

I'm looking for a 4.5-18 right now. Love the 3-12x I got from you.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

John Thats good news, as long as they don't go the 34mm route. I hope they shorten the 18X version to the length of the 12x. I will be all over that. prefer the size of the 12x and the magnification of the 18X.

hopefully a SFP model will be available, the 4.5-18 does make more sense as a FFP, this is actually exciting news to me. That scope did almost everything right, I pray they offer a MOA version. IF they do all my nightforce scopes could be for sale. I may also hold off on another nightforce purchase just to see what they have to offer.

Would love the exact same 3-12 at the originally advertised 20 ounce weight...

Well now I feel silly for not buying a used LRHS for $700 when I had the chance :\
**And yes - like someone above stated - I'll likely hold off on scope purchases until I see the new offering.
