Bushnell Excursion FLP anyone actually use one

Bushnell Excursion FLP anyone actually use one yet?
What did you think?
How did it compare?
What rifle scope reticle did you use it with, and how did that work?
Or any other spotters with reticles I should look at. Sorry ones that don't break the bank like Swarz, Ziess out of the running for me!
Thanks

I think they are going to be a great value. I ordered one from SWFA with the new reticle, but, they aren't in stock yet. Maybe sometime this month.

I've got one with the mil-dot reticle. It's a good scope for the money. I see a slight distortion at the outer edge of view and I wish the eye relief were better. But, it does the job for the money. You'll need another tripod too, the bushy is just too flimsy. Had another person drop it on it's objective, bounced off the concrete and keeps on ticking...

I've been running one for about a year now. Nothing but good things to say about it. I've even done side-by-sides with much more expensive scopes and have been surprised to see the Bushnell as better. This was also the opinion of others that were there, too. The tripod it came with last year is kinda cheesy, but they have supposedly dropped that as part of the kit.

Only if there is a real chance someone will be shooting back at you.

Re: Bushnell Excursion FLP anyone actually use one

I use one. I really like it, especially for what I paid for it. I would love to have a MK4 spotter, but for an extra $1100, I am happy with my bushnell.

Am I going to sell mine and rush out to get the new reticle.....nope. It would be nice, but if I was going to replace it, I would continue to save my pennies and get the MK4 for the better glass.

Like stated before, mine does have a little edge clarity issues, but I can live with it.
