Reviews & Ratings for Bushnell Elite Tactical HDMR 3.5-21x50mm Scope — 1 review — Page 1

People complain in reviews that you can get better glass for about the same price. What these people don't understand is you can't get these new HORUS reticles on high dollar glass for about the same price, not even close. They compare standard or modified Mil-Dot reticle scopes to this reticle. So, if you understand why you're getting this reticle, you'll understand you won't find anything close for this price. Go look for these reticles on a night force or leupold. But hey, not everyone cares about long range shooting precision advantages that HORUS offers, they just buy a high dollar scope and hope for the best with hold-offs. If you have all day to sit there an dial in your knobs, then go for something else. If you want precision hold overs for the real world that work, this is the place to start. Only gripe is there isn't a red dot for general short range quick shots, the reticle is hard to see against darker stuff when you're not zoomed in. Other than that, they have a winner and can't be touched for the price. I never used my red dot on my Vortex scope, but you could see the reticle a little better when it was zoom was at a minimum, so it wasn't as necessary. This reticle, the lines are very thin for accurate hold overs when you're zoomed to the max.
