GAP Bushy LRHS 4.5-18

Has it been tested yet? Anyone played with one?

I have several. Mine have been nearly perfect. I had a zero shift when I lost a rifle that took a 6 foot fall onto blue ice.....but I can't verify if it was scope, mount or gun that moved....but I had a zero shift of about .75". I have them on 300win, 300rum, 223ai and 6.5x284.

I buy them without pause.

I've owned 3 Gen 1's since they first put them out. No failure on two to hold zero so far. One just went into service so time will tell on that one. I'm not a big fan of the donut reticle but I make them work. Most reports are they have been overall pretty solid but not totally immune to fail. Better than a lot out there.

Train about to come off the tracks. Since you’re here Form, do you have a position on scopes that will be babied and how they fall in the mix with the field evals? For example, here in south Texas, a lot of people pull a rifle from the safe, pack up in a decent foam lined case and drive a nice...

Rifle scopes you'd love to see Form test

The best thing Bushnell could do is to make a solid reticle in the 3-12x, and something like a 3-18x or 4-16x with smaller objective, then bring back the Bausch and Lomb name and brand it under that as a high end hunting scope. Is it not the case though the same hunters who wouldn't touch a...

I have that scope in a 12x as well. It's been to hell and back....solid performer.

I’m building a new 6GT. Want to keep things cheapish. Scope contenders are SHV 4-14, Maven RS 1.2 bla bla, and this Bushy. There are things I like and dislike about all of them. Dont like the reticle out of the Bushy, but it’s usable. Like the NF reticle, except it’s not usable. Like the reticle on the Maven, but that’s the only thing I like. No clear winner. Frustrating.

What's goofy about that deal was Gardner and Pat Sinclair wanted the "donut of death" but most of the public later decided they didn't like it

Odd indeed. I've had 4 of the LRHS models and 2 of the LRTS. Still have 1 of each. Solid scopes. Dont love either reticle but they are serviceable.

On a dangerous game gun, I get it. On a normal hunting gun, no gracias.

I have no beef with the donut. I like my LRHS2 pretty much the same as the maven 1.2
