It's pretty close, but it's been a while since I had a Forge and Match Pro close to side by side.
@Hollywood 6mm What's the news on these? They available now?
Both models are expected to be shipping in 2-3 weeks. You can sign up on the Bushnell site to get an email notification when sales go live again.
Just picked one of these up, anyone know of a throw lever that works with it?
I've got em. Not sure if they're on the site yet, but I need someone to test a "Pro Series" version. I will hook you up with one at just $20, normally $35. Just need you to report back on fitment out of my new machine.
I would love to take you up on this offer but I just talked with Bushnell and wont see mine until January sometime...
No word yet, but I'm pretty confident based upon testing from other levers!
I haven't had my hands on one of the old 6-24s in a long time, but from what I can remember with them, the Match Pro is noticeably better.
FYI - Non-Illuminated Match Pro is back in stock: https://www.bushnell.com/riflescopes/match-pro-6-24x50-riflescope/P2178035.html?cgid=riflescopes
So is the sunshade: https://www.bushnell.com/additional...tch-pro-sunshade-and-cap-kit/BU-6245SSSC.html
Hoping the illuminated is back in stock in a few weeks. I'll post up when it is.

Glad to see they're available again.

How's the reticle thickness of the Match Pro's illuminated Deploy Mil vs. the G3i?
I love my LRTSi but the reticle thickness (compared to, say, the EBR-7c of a PST II) is my only complaint.
The G3i is definitely thicker than the other reticles, but I never had a chance to compare the Deploy side by side with a G3i. I'm pretty sure it's decently thinner, though, plus the Deploy has a center dot.
@Team RCBS & Bushnell might be able to give a better answer, tho.
I bought two, so I guess I'll figure out soon enough.
If I'm willing to take the thrashing from my wife, may grab a Strike Eagle 5-25x for comparison.

My Match Pros were ordered Thursday and arrived Saturday morning...A+++ to Bushnell for fast shipping!
I have two LRTSi 4.5-18x and a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16x for comparison's sake, so here are my thoughts on the Match Pro:
I have two LRTSi 4.5-18x and a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16x for comparison's sake, so here are my thoughts on the Match Pro:
- Money was definitely saved on packaging - plain brown box with sticker, but that's fine
- Wish it came with lens covers of some sort as a value add, not a huge deal. What Butler Creeks fit?
- Big fan of the turret design, good tactile & audible feedback, stupid easy to reset to zero. Wish it had a zero stop, though
- Parallax adjustment was stiff initially, but is more precise than any other optic I've ever owned
- Glass quality is a definite step down from the LRTSi (wasn't expecting it to be on par) but a bit better than the Diamondback Tactical
- 14.6mil up adjustment with 20MOA base on my B14R from 50yd zero with SK Match, which gets me to 300 yards
- I think I prefer the floating dot of the Deploy Mil reticle a bit more than the G3i for shooting groups on paper, but I think the open center of Vortex EBR reticles is even better for paper groups...jury still out here
Not sure on BCs, but Bushnell has a kit that includes the sun shade and scope caps. They even knock $10 off the price if you order it at the same time as the scope, for anyone that's planning to order an optic.
