Yeah most of the 35/36x are like 3ft @100 yards. It feels like my xtr 3 has good fov at 30x. I’ll have to turn the xrs3 & mk5hd down to 30x to see how it compares to the xtr. I think only the alphas like zco & march will have decent fov at 35/36x. FOV & turrets are the trade off vs alphas
The FOV is better than a Mark 5 at the same magnification levels. I'm really happy with my XRS3 overall. If the turrets we're a little more crisp it'd be perfect.
If you think the XRS3's FOV sucks the Leupold MK5's are the worse I've ever seen in the industry!
Even there binoculars have low fov. I’ve compared the mk5hd 35x to others with similar power & it’s not a lot worse until you look through a March or zco. The mk5hd is 3ft & so is the xrs3. I just compared them & they are very close. I put a yardstick out at 100 yards & both were right at 3ft with the xrs3 just slightly better but not much. I’ve had the nf 35x side by side too & the extra .5 at 100 yards is not much. The March & zco were amazing when I finally looked through those at a match. My pmii has a little over 5ft at 100 yards which is big
Sample variation & qc happens to all scope makers. You should check out koshkins way to set the diopter. It really brings out the best a scope can do optically.
Good evening. Do you know if the Onx Elite benefits are still available via Bushnell riflescopes? I went to Onx Elite's website and Bushnell is listed as a vendor but the 25% applies to trail cams it appears. I am looking at purchasing one of these Bushnell XRS3 scopes. Thanks
The site currently claims trail cams but when you click the link that they published it takes you to Bushy's website where all the items have the discount applied. As of today, 1/15/2023, the code still works and reflects the following prices: DMR3 @ 1124 pretax and XRS3 @ 1274 pretax. This may be changed in the future by the company so if you are actually interested in using their discount I suggest you act fast. Vortex ran a 30% code for about 2.5 months and it immediately got nuked to 10% once it actually started to be used at EuroOptic. Also wouldn't be surprised if Vista forced them to make changes to how the code is applied, but it is a public company so I doubt there would be a quick fix that would inhibit you from purchasing at the price they advertise in the next few days if you were to go ahead and sign up.
Is this still the price ? That’s better than mil!
Yes, 25% across all products.
I want to thank you for your insight. I just ordered one with the newer reticle. Much appreciated.
