Rifle Scopes What is coming from bushnell 2021.........????
- Thread starter Schw15
- Start date
Hopefully an optically improved, 4-20 magnification, lighter weight, LRHS replacement.
BUSHNELL -- SAVE ME FROM BEING FORCED TO BUY AN ULTRA SHORT ! ...... the temptation is strong without a new Bushnell alternative. My wallet will thank you. 
Reasoning: IMO - If I'm going to spend up to $3,000 for the usual brand in that price range, I might as well go all the way and get exactly what I want . A $1900 Bushnell alternative is just as reliable and offers Glass good enough to make me happy..

The fact that Midway is still selling the DMR II at a really good price tells me something is coming and they don't want to be holding old stock.
Time will tell.
Time will tell.
I would like to see spotters similar to the Elite models with the interchangeable eyepieces. Would love to get one that is angled to go with my straight one.
@Team RCBS & Bushnell any updates yet, we got to be getting close to announcement time?

Rifle Scopes - New Bushnell Elite LRHS2
The only thing I would do different, is have a thinner reticle with either a floating cross or dot. The G3 reticle is a tad too thick, but usable. This is the only thing I would change about this scope as well. The reticle is too thick in the center, a floating dot would make it complete...
www.snipershide.com It would likely take a complete redesign of the LMSS2 to do something like that, which I don't see happening. I could be wrong, though.
LRHS2 illuminated with locking windage and locking elevation. .2 hash for wind holds 3-15x42- ish with 30mm tube and bring the donut back... that would be ideal for me.
I doubled down on that deal....
Bring back the LRTSi and all will be good. Why mess with something so good?
No BDC but the 1-10 FFP would be awesome.
The midway dump makes me believe gen 3’s are coming.
Got a dmr ii I bought on impulse super cheap haha. I just picked up a XTR III kinda wish I would of waited a tad bit longer tho in case they release something I tell myself is a need and not a want haha.
Another forum has a thread on a new LRHS2 that’s being field tested I think.
There's a thread here on it, too. George has been posting about it on FB, it's going to be a GAP exclusive.
Aww, what ya gotta be like that for? What did you hear?
I’m very close to buying another LRHS or an AMG. I hope there’s a hint soon to know if it’s worth waiting.
This kind of thing sucks, everyone has been hanging on for ages thinking at least some details about reticle updates or something will drop soon. Starting to feel like Bushnell’s marketing team is taking lessons from fake supermodels on dating websites. “oh no baby I’ll show you sooooon, I promise”
@Team RCBS & Bushnell any sweet sweet nothings you can whisper into our ears to keep us hooked til the official release?
What do we prefer, Hiders?
No info until the scope is shipping, or an introduction but months-long wait from introduction to availability as the industry has seen multiple times in the past?

We're shifting more towards the former while in the past we've done more of the latter.
When Match Pro was released you could buy it that day, although the demand on them was way over the top of what we thought it'd be and we've struggled on inventory on them every since. By the way - Those are going to be back in stock in a ~week.
When we launched the Sport 850 you could buy it that day.
We're trying to get away from the launch it then make people wait 6-12 months for it to be available thing. That said, OPSEC is still tight on these. I will say I think we're going to see more Elite Tactical on the firing line than we have in previous years.
Yes, please.....Grabbed an XRS2 and an LRTS recently, and I've been super impressed.....inventory on them has dried up (obviously), so you got me hooked but now I have no place to get my fix......bring me more Elite Tactical options!!!
Hoping for the Match Pro reticle in the ET line. Center dot, Christmas tree, .5 mil holds. Perfect for a gas gun, I don't need .2 mil holds.
I'm a little worried about where they are going to be making their scopes at. I don't have any insider information or anything like that- but I happened to be at the scope counter when the owner was talking to a Bushnell rep (or sales guy or distributer or whatever- he was pushing Bushnell). We started talking and he mentioned the Forge line and if I was interested in it. Told him no because it was made in China. He told me it wasn't a big deal because it was built to their specs and the quality was excellent- and it was able to keep the price lower for what you get.
Really hope that they don't follow that same thinking with the Elite line.

Why would they do that? It’s two different product lines for two different budgets.
Elite Tactical will still be made in Japan.
Illuminated or non-illuminated?
Illuminated. Looks like non-illuminated will be a few more weeks still.
I've read the new Elite scopes will be announced August 1st and available September 1st...
Where'd you see that?
Ugggh... I need a new scope ASAP, August can’t come quick enough (if August is the date)
