Rifle Scopes Bushnell ELITE TACTICAL DMRII RIFLESCOPES - 3.5-21X50

[gr8fuldoug]

Hey Guys

BUSHNELL ELITE TACTICAL DMRII RIFLESCOPES - 3.5-21X50

Good scope? Great scope?
G3?
H59?
If I can get you a deal on these is it of interest? Which reticle? What price would you need this to be at?

Thanks
Doug

I run one on my 223, I think the DMRii is one of the most underated scopes out there. I have had nothing but great luck with my Bushnell Elite Tacticals. I would not hesitate to buy another if I was in the market, I think they would be a good addition to your inventory. Personally I'm a G3 fan but I've seen a fair share of people running both reticles.

I've got the Pro model, and I have been happy with it. The DMR2 is a damn solid optic, just a little lacking in the glass department - but cost and reliability make up for it.

I think below 1k is a reasonable bargain. With rebates last year I got my dmr2pro for ~1100 and with the open box sale I got an xrs 2 for 1200 so maybe I have unrealistic expectations.
But bushnell is listing the dmr2 themselves right now for 1250 which is what I feel like its actually been selling at for a year now at least so thats not a spectacular value IMO.
I know thats not an every day price so it isnt apples to apples but if you really want to move them I think $900-1000 is a sweet spot where you cant deny the value.

A DMR pro with a G3 at a good price is something I’d be interested in for my AR.

What he said. Under a grand for the G3 (non illuminated) or H59.

Thank you for your input and council. We have decided to bring these scopes in with the H59 and G3 reticle options. Our web builder is creating the pages as I type.

The compact DMR II measures just over 13 inches and provides long-range precision without sacrificing short-range capability. Features a black finish and the G3, G3-i and Horus Vision H59 reticles.

• Exclusive EXO Barrier Protection - Bushnell’s newest and best protective lens coating molecularly bonds to the glass, repelling water, oil, dust, debris and preventing scratches.
• IPX7 Waterproof construction - O-ring sealed optics stay dry inside, when immersed in three feet of water for up to 30 minutes
• Throwhammer™ Throw Lever - Allows for quick magnification changes with a simple flick of a finger
• REVLIMITER™ (Zero Stop)
• FAST FOCUS EYEPIECE
• SIDE FOCUS
• FIRST FOCAL PLANE RETICLE
• Your choice of HORUS VISION H59 or G3 Reticle

Please give us a call, 516-217-1000, for extra special pricing.

Thanks for your assistance in making the decision to bring these in.

The xrs 2 is the one to own. Virtually the same size and weight with much better glass and magnification if needed. It's not like anyone is using these under 8 power anyway.

Don't forget the DMR2 Pro.

 

[Glassaholic]

I'd be much more interested in the DMR 2 Pro for a special deal. The DMR II is really nice but more interest in the Pro with its better glass and if you can convince Bushnell to offer illumination in the Pro even better. Definitely G3 more so than the Horus.

Illumination has been discussed, but no idea when/if it'll ever happen.

I would buy a pro if it had illumination. Most of my guns are crossover rifles. I have been burned in the past hunting with a non illuminated FFP scope.

I couldn’t pass this deal up. I just called Doug and ordered one with the G3 reticle. This will be my first Bushnell so I hoping they are as nice as everyone says.

I've ran my DMR2 HARD for over 2yrs, and its never let me down yet. Glass is mediocre, but it's bombproof with a very usable reticle (G3 here).

I have 3 bushnells now. And it has nothing to do with being a fanboy, I just found good deals for really good scopes in different price ranges. I'm very happy with all of them. I do plan on upgrading one of them on my hunting rifle, but I won't be selling it, it's still a very good scope

 

[Eoddave27]

Do you guys know what the parallax goes down to on these. I checked Bushnells web site Andy it doesn’t say. I’m planning to use this on a 22 so ideally it will go down to 25 yds.

 

[gr8fuldoug]

They told me that the shipment is mixed with mostly 50 yard but a few cases of 25 yards so if you need the 25 just let me know and I'll make sure you get a 25 No worries

Mine is 46yds max.

If they have 25 that would be awesome. I’m putting this on a rifle that will be used for NRL22 matches. In general when I’m shooting at 25 yards I have the power cranked way down and the parallax should be pretty forgiving at that magnification but on the off chance that’s I have to shoot at tiny targets at that range the 25yd parallax would be a big help.

Once again great customer service from Camera land. Thanks again Doug. You have a customer for life.

I do not own this particular scope, however my wife and I own two identical pairs of 6500 series. She got a BDC for her new hunting rig, then she got identical 2.5-16 in MIL for target. I was making fun of her and her $900 scopes until I tried it- holy shit was it impressive for a sub $1k glass... ended up getting an identical pair. Too bad can’t get these 6500 Elites any longer- probably would have gotten another pair in DOA for hunting rifles. BTW, DOA must have been specifically made for our hunting ammo (6.5x55, 140gr Lapua Naturalis) because its dead on...
In short, as of 4yrs ago- I do have a great respect for Bushnell, or at least 6500 Elite line.

 

[DrDeath]

I’m really surprised how far Bushnell has come. 10 years ago you would never see guys putting Bushnell on a precision rifle.

 

[NavyshooterM40]

I think Bushnell is one of best bangs for the buck. I have an old DMR with original GAP reticle I bought from George years ago and just purchased a XRSII from Midway on sale. Looking forward to what they offer in the future. They did very well in the Snipershide scope tracking test.
