Hi,

tried searching Bushnell website, 'net and 'hide for no avail (misc Bushnell docs speak about 12x but not decisively).

What is Bushnell Elite 6500 2.5-16x42 Mildot's (the model w/o target turrets) "synchronized power setting"? That is, at what power setting the mildots are true?

If somebody's using one, this is my best bet:

Thanks,

I thought is was 10x, but the best way to tell is to set a yard stick across your target at 100 yards (exactly) and dial the magnification ring until 10mil dots = the yard stick.

I have one and just double checked it.

It's 10X.

yep, 10X...

Thanks guys, I'm just planning to get one so had no way to check.

16x would have been too much since I want it on a hunting 22LR, but 10x sounds nice enough.
