bushnell junk. Bushnell Sentry 18-36X50 spotting scope

[catchdog]

I bought a Bushnell Sentry 18-36X50 spotting scope last week. And the first time I turned it up to 36 power one of the lenses inside fell out of place.Yes I was Quite pissed off to say the least.When you pay $100 for something you dont expect it to break the first time you put your eye to it.Im going to replace it with a yukon, Ill let you know how that turns out,

Save your money and buy a decent scope. There's nothing in the lower end (under, say $500) that's really worth your money.

I have to agree. It sucks that the lens fell out on you. Good optics will cost you more, but they are worth their weight in gold.

The Yukon is working just fine for what I needed it for. I only shoot out to 300 yards and I can see bullet holes with it that far.
Me and the wife are going out to Yellowstone in June and I am taking it with us.So I will get to test it out at long range.

One more thing I will ad is that even though it has 45X it is only truly clear at about 24X . Yes I can see bullet holes on white paper at 300 yards . But I am sure your not going to judge a bucks rack at 600 yards.
