Reviews & Ratings for Bushnell Elite Tactical Hunter 4.5-18x44mm Rifle Scope — 5 reviews — Page 1

This scope is awesome! Bushnell has come a LONG WAY!!! I’ve got this scope on my new Christensen Arms ELR gun in 28 Nosler and it’s got a kick! It’s super clear at 18 power and the eye Relief is great. The glass is great and I love the GR2(I think that’s what it’s called) reticle. This scope is on my long range hunting rifle and is super solid. Zero stop scope is great. You won’t be disappointed. Holds zero every time. I’ve put bullets through the same whole no problem with this scope.

You may be looking for something different, but this scope was exactly what I was looking for. I am a bit of a scope snob, not because I am independently wealthy but because I follow the "buy once, cry once" rule. As such, the majority of my scope are in the $1000 + range depending on what application I am needing them for. With this particular scope, I wanted a mid level magnification, FFP, illuminated reticle, and a reticle with a circle and cross hairs for faster acquisition at low power. For anyone who has used FFP scopes you know that the crosshairs at minimum power almost disappear, especially when placed on dark objects and/or in the gloom of the woods. This scope is a perfect combination of everything I wanted and needed, and I got it on sale so it didn't break the bank. The quality of glass is excellent and all the controls have distinct clicks. I like the capped windage knob and the zero lock on the elevation knob. Again, the perfect all-around scope in options and magnification for backwoods hunting and shooting. This may well be the first scope I have never had "buyers remorse" over! Again, just an excellent all-around good "do everything" type of scope, and if you can get it on sale, DON'T HESITATE! You won't regret it!

Excellent optics. Extremely clear even at the highest power. The recticle was very well thought out for long range hunting. It is the only first focal plane recticle that I have used that works as good at 50 yards as it does at 800 yards.

The turrets are very positive and easy to read without being so large that they get in the way when carrying or putting the rifle in the scabbard. The zero stop is easy to set and very positive.

Every aspect of this scope was designed for long range hunting, it's not a tactical scope being sold as a hunting scope although it works very well for long range target shooting.

The weight of the scope is very reasonable considering all the features it has. Most scopes of this quality with these features weight over 30 ounces making yourban rifle bulky for hunting in the mountains.

This scope is great! Clarity is top notch and the zero stop is an amazing feature. This is the perfect combination of hunting and long distance shooting functionality! I cannot wait to try lengthening my distance out to a thousand yards for targets.
