Re: Final Thoughts - Bushnell FFP Mil Reticle Spot
Bushnell has the problems sorted out now. They pulled all of the old stock and have replaced it with new units that have had the quality control issues resolved. the interior coatings are different, the assembly process is done with new jigs that assure no reticle cant. interestingly bushnell considers any degree of reticle cant to be "out of spec". The reticle jump that was present in the older scopes is gone. The qc process now includes using a light table and cycling through the entire zoom range as well as other improvements.
I have some of the new ones in stock and can assure you they are without any issues. My confidence has been restored.
Bushnels customer service was not the best it could have been when people called with problems. I spoke with the VP of the spotting scope division and he assures me that they are working to better serve their dealers and customers.
