just ordered the scope from a rf central sponser, GM sporting goods, is it a decent scope for the money? i really wanted to try an ao scope so i took the plunge, i guess my ultimate is on its way to being born...................im sure that gm has good service anybody order from them before?

I have one. This scope is rated for air guns. I have mine on a CZ special and
love it. it is clear repeatable and it focuses down to 7.5 yds. One of the best
deals for the money IMO. Mine is 3x9 sportsman with target turrents and AO.
You can buy from Midway for I think $65.00. Field of view is excellent also.

I agree with everything ftstinyc said plus I would add that these work great with most see thru mounts also.

bkkd. I don't see the AO sportsman on the GM web-site but that doen't mean
they don't have them. The one I am talking about also has target turrents.
I also don't see the scope on the Optic Zone. I am sure they can get them
though. These are wonderful folks to deal with. Good luck with your scope I
am sure you will like it.

this is the link to it, it has the same bushnell part number and the same description, i just think that the picture is a generic one of the bushnell scopes im pretty sure this is the 3-9 x 32 airgun target knob ao adjustable that everybody was talking about in rfcentral, at least i hope so thats the one i ordered..........

bkkd. That link doesn't work but I did find it. Wow they are expensive. They
have the Bushnell 5x15x40 model 3200 for $344. I just paid $259 at the
optic zone about 2 weeks ago. You are going to pay $82 plus shipping is way
too much for that sportsman. I would not order anything there again. JMO.

Sorry you are correct. I ran a search under
the web-site and the price is as you stated. My Elite is still higher from them
than Optic Zone. $309 compared to $259. I don't know where I was when I
saw $82.00 for the sportsman. You did do good. The only differents I see
is the scopes AO go's down to 7.5 yds and they state 10 yds. That is the
scope though.

Bushnell could do better

This scope is OK I guess for $75, I have one and am not impressed. It is NOT very clear. Adjustments are OK but not real repeatable. AO settings seem to be off. I wish I would have bought a better scope. I have a about a 30 year old weaver v-12 that is twice the scope that this is, I bought it used at a gun show for 80 bucks. I wish I had another one instead of the bushnell. Good Luck
