Reviews & Ratings for Bushnell Elite 3200 3-10x40 Short Action Compact Rifle Scope (Matte Rifle Scope) 323104M — 5 reviews — Page 1

Appears and feels solid and well made, adjustments are positive, zoom/focus a bit stiff for some tastes. Generous eye relief. Good optics for the money, bright and free of fringing, with decent low-light capabilities, always a good test. This model strictly for short actions! Bushnell acquired this design from Bausch & Lomb a while back; it was good then and it's still good now...
Pros: Well made, great glass for the money
Cons: Zoom/focus perhaps a bit stiff

Mounted this scope on my Win Mdl 70 6.5X55. Excellent clarity and repeatability. Short tube somehow manages to be just long enough for the full length action.
Pros: quality construction, excellent optics
Cons: Short tube

Great scope for the money. Even though it's a short action scope, I mounted it on my Remington 700 7mm Magnum Rifle. I have been using this rifle to hunt groundhogs for the last two weeks, and the scope performs flawlessly. The image clarity is good, yes, even in low light. The crosshairs stay put, even with the jolt from the 7mm. I just got four of those buggers yesterday, distances as follows 140 yds, 70 yards, 70 yards and 50 yards. Four shots, four kills, and did not need to re-sight. In fact, I last sighted it in a week ago, and through travel and the heavy poundig of the 7mm mag, the scope held true. Within the next week, I plan to buy another Bushnell Elite 3200 for my .223, since that scope is not working well. Which is why I am using a 7mm to hunt groundhogs until I but another scope.
I have not used it in the rain yet, so I can not comment on the waterproofing, but the lens has not fogged up on me, even though my eyeglasses did.
As a side note, I utilized the free shipping, and even though it was UPS ground, the UPS center received the package from Optics Planet the next day.
Pros: Good light, Durable
Cons: none

I put this scope on my Savage .17 hmr BVSS. Have only had it out in good weather, but the image is very clear and bright under these conditions. Most of my shooting with it has been at approximately 100 yds and the groups have been respectable when I do my part.
Pros: pretty good glass for the money
Cons: a lot of scopes with good reviews can be had for less
