If I read it right it says that if your not satisfied you can return it within 365 days for a full refund. Is this correct ?

Thinking about picking up a 4200 elite 3-12x44 FFP on clearance.
Since I've never laid eyes on one of these the 1 year trial period could seal the deal.

Yes.

But you won't need to use the warranty. It's a very good scope. Perhaps the best to be had under $1000.

Nope. Lifetime warranty.

I have sent a range finder and a scope to them, both purchased second hand, and all I had to do was ship it to them and pay $15. for shipping back.
As far as the scopes they have on clearance, I picked up a 6 x 24 FFP Mil dot and I really like the features for the price.
The optics are not as clear and bright as my Leupold 8.5 x 25 x 50 that I just sold but it has the features that I wanted, all and all I don't think you could go wrong for the price.

Did you have the receipt?
 
Re: Bushnell elite warranty ?

I had a problem with an Elite 3200 10x40, the UK distributer fobbed me off and wouldn't replace it even though it was within a month of me buying it and covered under Busnell's no quibble 1 year guarantee.
I got in touch with Bushnell direct explaining the problem, they sent me out a new scope from the States free of charge and told me to chuck the old one in the bin. Pretty impressive customer service in my opinion. I am however loath to buy another Bushnell here in the UK again as the distributors are a complete set of wankers..
