    Rifle Scopes Strike Eagle 1-8 or Viper PST Gen II 1-6

    I think this would be perfect for you if you're not shooting much past 300 yrds. You can find it for around $450 from various Hide vendors.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 30% Rebate Info for Elite Tactical Scopes

    I could be wrong but I don't believe anyone has been approved through an online submission. I think Vista is approving the rebates manually.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 30% Rebate Info for Elite Tactical Scopes

    Received denial email over the weekend on the XRS II. Just called and was able to get it approved. Just FYI some of the customer service reps (like mine) are still not aware of the issue. I had to nicely ask mine to speak to her manager. That got it approved for me.

    Curious, have you spoken to them since its been rejected?

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell will not honor 30% off Elite Tactical scopes

    I live literally 5 minutes from Vista's corporate office. I'm half tempted to drop by and see if anyone will talk to me. They need to straighten this all out.

    Rifle Scopes Scope suggestion - sub $1800 range

    I really appreciate that comparison. The Cronus BTR is on my short list if the rebate on the XRS II doesn't go through. Pricing seems to be about the same when adding in the rebate with the XRS II. I really do hate the zero stop on the ERS.

    Rifle Scopes Scope suggestion - sub $1800 range

    Right now I have a Bushnell ERS 3.5-21x 50mm. I'm also one of the ones who jumped on the Bushnell rebate snafu and bought a XRS II. I bought it due to the reduced price with the rebate and I probably won't keep it if the rebate doesn't go through - its a few hundred more than I want to spend...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell will not honor 30% off Elite Tactical scopes

    I don't know...has anyone that sent in the rebate through mail actually been approved and received it back? A lot of people have been told to mail it in with the rebate form that didn't exclude the tactical line, but I haven't seen anyone who has for sure been approved yet. I'm hoping this...

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 30% Rebate Info for Elite Tactical Scopes

    In my opinion, its one of the best and my choice at that price range. I really like mine.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 30% Rebate Info for Elite Tactical Scopes

    You should be good. Enough people have heard from Bushnell saying they'll honor the warranty. I wouldn't be surprised if the guy that was denied gets it resolved. And if for some crazy reason they don't, Brownells will take it back. That's why I ordered from them.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 30% Rebate Info for Elite Tactical Scopes

    I bought mine from Brownells. Just received an email reply from Bushnell this morning confirming the Elite Tacticals are covered under the rebate.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 30% Rebate Info for Elite Tactical Scopes

    Next time you speak with them I would mention that others were told that the rebate would apply and were told to send in everything. It may help you to get the rebate. I agree that Bushnell will have a problem on their hands if people get denied, especially since Vista reps are telling people...

    Curious...did you talk to Vista or Bushnell? I have a copy of the Midway form if you need it.

    Rifle Scopes Bushnell 30% Rebate Info for Elite Tactical Scopes

    I just spoke with Ashley at Vista who told me I should be fine. Hopefully, that is the case. I have a new XRS II coming. For those considering, if you use active junky and order from Brownells, you can get an additional 4% off. That's 34% off the price. Not bad.

    PSA: Howa Barreled Actions for $270-$300ish

    That is super tempting. Can you get a KRG Bravo for the Howa action?

    Huber trigger and Bighorn action

    Anyone running a Huber trigger with their Bighorn action? Bought one for my TL3 build and my smith is telling me that he's had a few customers have issues recently with the Huber trigger in their Bighorns. Think he said there's issues with sear engagement. Curious if anyone has experienced any...

    Will do. I'm interested to see how it compares to my Bushnell ERS.

    Rifle Scopes Hunting scope suggestion

    Does anyone know the difference between the G2 and G3 reticle? I pulled out my Bushnell ERS which has the G2 and comparing it to pictures of the G3 I can’t see a difference. Is it the thickness of the reticle?

    Rifle Scopes Hunting scope suggestion

    Thanks, that's what I'm actually looking at right now. Found a few for sale. All three are the LRTS. Two non illuminated with G3 reticle and one is illuminated for a little more with G2.
