Has anybody had any experience with one of theses and more specifically the 4.5-30x50.

And yes it is SFP

Yes,
Had one on my Savage Mod 12 LRP in .260 Rem.

Tracking was consistent, good clarity out to 900m. Was used when I "dabbled" in the dark arts of F Class.

Just buy a swaro

I bought one new in a moment of stupidity instead of buying another nightforce or similar
Quite reasonable when used at night with a spotlight at 16 power

Daytime
Average once you get above about 18 power and very average above 22 power compared to upper end leupolds or Nightforce Br
Tracks ok but does not like to be knocked around as far as holding zero

Would I buy another one
Nope

I've had pone for 8 years or so , never any problem but I guess if I had to choose between a Nightforce & the Bushnell I would opt for the Nightforce.
Would I buy another one - yes if I needed it.

Which reticle are you using in your nightforce scopes?

The one I have is "away" on relocation at the moment but here's a pic of the box if that helps. I tend to like the "uncluttered" sort wherever possible.

Well on Barries suggestion I picked up a second hand4.5-30x50

He said if I did not like it he would buy it of me

Barry doesn't think you will be sorry Mr Andrew. I do believe they are pretty hardy too - mine had a couple of months holidaying scope down in a shopping trolley with 10 or so other rifles on top of it & it seemed to weather the storm oops seezer. Can't comment on the buy back guarantee till I find out the second hand purchase price

I had one of these and have moved it on as a scope is a personal choice thing I guess. I could not get used to the eye relief distance on my rifles which now all have Nightforce scopes on them. I found I had a lot of trouble bobbing my head up and down backward and forward to find the right spot that you would get for clarity and full field of view. do not have any problems with the Nightforce scopes at all. I have since sold it on and the person that has it now loves it. You may find out that you like it or you may not. Function wise it was ok with holding zero and would track ok, was for me eye relief was too short, simple as that.

I have used a Bushnell 6500 4.5-30×50. Was good to use under the spotlight and during day. Lost clarity at the high end magnification range.
I also liked the way the rifle balanced with the with the 6500. I am a Nightforce person but Nightforce are a big scope and can make a rifle awkward.
I would own a 6500

I have the 6500 sfp 6x24x50 efr and it's nice and clear even up to 24x and you guys are correct I have looked through the 4.5 to 30x model and it's not a touch on the 6x24x50, but I prefer my nightforce's ,Leupold MK4's and March scopes, but for the $$$ the bushnell is quite good, don't like the large turrets !!

Well I mounted it up and took it for a sight in and paddock Pizza session with Miss and Mrs Missed this arvo.

For the dollars not bad but would much prefer the Sightron S111
