Any reviews for BSA Scopes

Bmccrory · 05-14-2009, 10:02 AM

I've been looking at getting a new scope for my Remington 770 chambered in .270 Winchester. I shoot Winchester 130 GR. Ballistic Silvertips. I was looking to go with Bushnell for my new scope but stopping in Dickson yesterday I talked to a salesman and told him what I wanted and he showed me the BSA Sweet .270. I was about $30 cheaper than the Bushnell I was looking at but I"™ve never really heard too much about them. He told me that they are just as good in quality as a Bushnell. I liked the fact that it"™s made for my .270 specifically but I"™m still a little unsure. It had a lot of features that I liked. Could anyone give me some feed back on BSA?

Thank you all for the input. I am definitely going to get a Bushnell. Any recommendations on a mid range scope? I"™m looking for about $150 at most.

Go to S.W.F.A. and check out the Vortex line.

I use only leupold on my guns and some of them are long range high dollar guns.I do have a few BSA scopes around from back in the day when i couldnt afford anything else.I did kill a nice muley at 450 yards with a BSA and the site picture was grainey so i must pay them honor to at leat be something to use if you cant afford anything else.I used the contender by the way and could accuratly hit a target at 600 yards with the rifle i had the BSA on. yes Junk compared to Leupold ,Swar,Nightforce but for some it works

for a 150 bucks I would look at Mueller scopes, very very nice for the money.

For $150 you can also get a Nikon Prostaff.
