Default $25 Scope

I went into Sprts Authority the other day a ran across a killer deal.The had a bunch of scopes on their markdown table.I picked up a Bushnell Banner Dusk & Dawn 3-9X40 Wide Angle scope for less than $25.It was originally marked for $109.95. It was Brand new in the box never opened. I should go back and see if they have more...

What do you guys think, did I get a good deal or what?

Sounds like a good deal to me. I'd pick one up for that price.

Only a 77 percent discount? I'd say you got ripped off!

I have a Bushnell Banner Dusk and Dawn on my shotgun. They work just fine. If you go back pick up a couple and give one to me as payment for all this good advice.

The Banners used to be the bottom of the Bushnell scope line. They now sell ones that are even cheaper! But every Banner I ever used worked. No breakdowns, even on rifles of considerable recoil.

I think you got a fair deal!

I will never put another Bushnell on one of my guns.... two of them had problems either reticle or lens inside...... rather use Tasco!

I agree with Eldeguello....Busnell Banners were not worth installing years ago, and I've never picked one up since. Would not hols POI and had parallex problems. I don't know if they fixed the quality issues they had or not. Been a little leery of them. I do know one would never go on my elk rifle.

I had one that I shot on an AR-15 for years. Never had a problem with it at all.
