BSA Essencial Scopes

[Ericb]

Hi, I have just reluctantly sold one to Ericb on here to fund another scope to use with NV. I could not believe how crisp and clear the optics were and how easy the mil-dot ret is to get on with. I also have a mamba and as far as Im concerned the bsa is as good if you can live with the px on the objective. I stated all these facts in my advertisment but people are still afraid of commiting themselves. What really makes me laugh is that they may even be made in the same factory as some of the so called top names, such is life, Enjoy Ericb you have a quality cheap scope. Cheers Terry

Have to say the scope is perfect and it now sits atop my Tench regged Ultra.

I have the 3-9x40 mini-mildot. It came as part of a kit-deal with a TX200 I added to the collection last year. My intention was to upgrade the scope a few months later to a Leupold VX-II I'd fallen for, with the essencial being a stop-gap to at least get me out enjoying the TX without the faff of swapping scopes over. 10 months later, the cheeky little upstart still has pride of place on my TX, and I will keep it there, by choice, until it breaks. It simply performs exactly as I require for the hunting I do, leaving me no technical reason to justify an "upgrade". I have occasional battles with the bling demons within me, but thankfully, reason keeps winning out Bravo BSA.

Really clear optics for the money- But the mil dots are far to close together and you have trouble seeing them in lower light conditions!
