Hola! Has anyone ever tried the Bushnell Banner Dusk and Dawn scopes? Earlier this month I bought the 3x9x40m of this series, but haven't taken it out into the field or gone to the range with it.
Any help is appreciated.

I had 2 of them. Mounted one on a muzzleloader and one on a 12 guage slug gun. Both failed on me after a few years. I assume it was the heavy recoil (at the time I was bein a knuckehead with my ML and shooting it with a max load). Up until then, I had no complaints with them. Might hold up fine on something that doesn't kick as bad & maybe I just was unlucky.

From:
The Banner is Bushnell's lower end line. For the $$ it has a decent reputation, however do not expect a scope that can be bought all day long for under $100 to eprform like a tope end, such as Bushnell's Elite series. My experience with the Banner is limited to what others I hunt with have told me ... did not hold up to year after year use and not much good in very, very low light.
