Apparently all the Bushnell scopes made in the Phillipines are the scopes to go for.
From what I have been told all the NEW Bushnell scopes made in China are not of the same quality.
My legend 5-15x40 is made in the Phillipines.

Don't forget Japan! The top of the line Bushnell Elites are made there. The top of the range from many leading manufacturers of optical products come from Japan or Germany. It is interesting that many leading scope makers-Bushnell, Simmons and others- moved their quality manufacturing to the Philippines which up to that point didn't really have a 'name' for optical quality.
China will get it right however: it is just a matter of time before the 'Made in China' badge will NOT necessarily indicate entry level quality.

I have three Bushnell Legends, one come from the UK market the other two from the USA. The UK market scope has a very fine ret, the USA purchased scopes have a thicker ret's. These were both purchased from the USA when the exchange rate was better, costing under one hundred pounds. Although Sportsman Gun Centre are doing these for about £135 at moment.
All three say made in Philippines

I've just bought one of these, partly on the strength of this review. First impression: wow
Can anyone explain the AO ring markings to me.
The ranges seem to be marked at three different levels, these align with the markings Y M Y
Also there are two markings for 100
