Rifle Scopes Bushnell's AR Optic...any thoughts?

[Squib Round]

I just finished building my first Ar15 and was thinking of putting one of these optics on it for coyote hunting. Does anybody have any insight on them? I like the idea of the BDC reticle as usually when coyote hunting the shots come quick or not at all. The rifle is a 20" heavy bbl if that matters.

Here is a link:
Bushnell - 2-12x 40mm

Thanks.

I should also mention that Bushnell is a local company and I was able to go check out this optic and it seemed every bit as clear as the Elite 3200 10X32 that everyone here seems to like.

I guess nobody has tried one then?

Not perfectly relevant but I wouldn't hesitate to buy a Bushnell scope these days if it had the features I wanted and fit my budget.
I'm down to only 2 Bushnells these days but they are both great scopes.

Thanks for the reply, Scudzuki. I understand your feelings toward bushnell. Full disclosure: I have a family member who works for them so I can get 50% off their products...so I figure I can get twice as much for my money buying from them as well as support the company a family member works for.

It would be interesting to see how much you can get Bushnell products for.
I'm confident that the price they will give you 50% off is MSRP, which is considerably more than street price. Even so, your price should be less than street price... You could definitely score some sweet deals with your connection.

Yes, the discount is off of the msrp. I've decided to get it and will update when it arrives. Thanks for the replies.
