Add a new 2-10x40 compact and I'm in............ With illumination,and under 20 ounces,could be just the ticket. I know I was only considering the NF NXS because of the weight difference and illumination. I guess when I say considering I mean saving for.

It seems they’ve been switching some of their other Elite Tactical scopes (XRS-II, DMR-II Pro) to incorporate ED glass, could that be the case here? I like Bushnells better scopes a lot, but their marketing of their new products could be sooooooo much better.

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.
John Awesome. Thanks for the info. Jason

the biggest problem with bushnell is the company has been horse traded around by private equity firms. Vista outdoors doesn't appear to be doing a very good job of reviving the brand when it was spun off from ATK. The company just keeps losing market share and value with every sale. Vortex has displaced them pretty much everywhere leaving only their cheapest lines like the banner and crap chinese stuff for sale in big box stores. your average guy isn't even able to look at their good stuff anymore in a store. I like bushnell stuff a lot better than vortex.
its the same problem we see in other places, ala freedom group, remington etc. the companies have been ran into the ditch.

I'd definitely like to pick up another one. Does anyone have a link to the one's for sale that are 850$, I can't find them. I did find the one on ebay but would prefer to not buy there if I don't have to. THanks.

A bud offered $850 and the seller took the offer. He's supposed to get it today, so at least the seller ships fast

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
