Is it calibrated for a bp 12?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Hunter, Gear Expert, from OH, United States, on April 12, 2022

The Bushnell AR Optics 3-9x40mm Rifle Scope has a reticle that is calibrated for .223 Remington. The Bushnell AR Optics 3-9x40mm Rifle Scope could be mounted on a BP12 but may not be the best option for that gun. The scope located at the link below would be a better option.
