Bushnell Legend 5-15x40 AO

[Arthur John Smithsplease]

Thanks Rich, but my solution isn't very aesthetically pleasing, is it?

Even though you can't see it.

It is the second best scope I have ever owned. And the first was another Bushnell - an Elite 4200 8-32x40 AO.

All my others have been relatively cheap ones.

great scopes I have owned a few..my only criticism is the mildots being rather large....the 3200 had a nicer size to it ....bargain and still worth 120£ all day long

Interesting review Arthur,

I must have owned at least 7 or 8 of the Legends over the years as I’ve always found they were really suited to Theoben Rapids (again owned loads of them also) they fitted perfect in the factory mounts with just enough clearance for the AO over the barrel.

Strangely though I’ve never encountered any of those two issues you have

I’ve also had the legend on other PCP’s and even a springer but never ran out of adjustment or had to get adjusting mounts

Bizarrely I’ve also never encountered the plastic turret issue either how strange especially as I’ve owned quite a few of them.

I guess I must have been extremely lucky perhaps but once zerod I wouldn’t need to keep adjusting the turrets so assume I must have been lucky.

I have owned two of these scopes and can agree that the glass is superb, bright, crisp image with good contrast.
The mildots are large and spaced quite far apart (believe the dots were true on 15x mag) which unfortunately is not so great for competition shooting.
Good however for those with older eyes.
Never seemed to shift zero either.

Great little scopes , and i agree with the dots been a little big , but never any turret issues . But for anyone that has , a cheap bit of aluminium round bar drill a couple of holes , file the finger holds or a simple driver slot .

I've had one of these on my 97k for the thick end of 15 years, they are great scopes. The combination barely moves from the zero year to year, and if it has it perhaps needs 4 clicks on one of the turrets max. After that if I miss then it ain't a scope/rifle problem!
