I'm looking for a spotting scope $400 and under. The farthest out I'd need would be 300 yards, It would mainly be for .308, but some 5.56. Currently, I'm looking at the Bushnell Legend Ultra HD 20-60x80 or the new Bushnell Excursion 15-45x60.

I would like your input as no one near me has one for me to look through. I'm open to suggestions for other scopes to look at as well.

Thanks

Nope, neither has either in stock. The factory outlet store gets the excursion in sporatically, but doesn't have the legend. The Cabelas here only carries the Trophy, they mainly have Leupold, Barska, Burris and zeiss. There are also two Bass Pro shops here, but they only have lower end optics.

Clear, bright and compact and a good value for the investment. </div></div>

We've got demos on that scope kit in camo @ #369.99 on our SHOT Show demo list
