Rifle Scopes Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

[Lowlight]

FYI for those who are interested in such I have 3 scopes here that I will soon be reviewing for the site.

Bushnell has sent over:

FFP 6-24X50 and FFP 4200 3-12X44 for the site to look at as well:

Midway has sent over a new Weaver Tactical for me to review.

So, not this weekend but by next week we'll start looking at them.

I haven't seen any specs on the Weaver Tacticals other than the magnification (3-15x and 4-20x).

How much elevation adjustment do they have? I am guessing 65MOA or less...which is unfortunate (depending on your setup and range of course).

 

[whiteLiftedz71]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

60MOA for the 4-20 I hear the 3-15 has more.

 

[264Charlie]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

The more reviews the better...

 

[vlcruz2001]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

My 4-20 Weaver has 58 moa of adjustment. I hear the Weaver 3-15 has around 68 moa of adjustment.

 

[Dsparil]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

cool I'm very interested in both scopes. Curious as to how durable they are

bomb proof? weeeee dun suppose you're going to do a video review of them?

 

[TrapperSGD]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

I think Lowlight is going to review the new 3-10 Weaver Tactical with the 0.1 Mil adjustments at Midway.

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

only 56 moa for that model...

 

[Wrighty]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

looking forward to these reviews. would be nice to see some side by side comparisons with other scopes around their price points. thanks for putting in the work.

 

[srv656s]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Awesome! Very interested to see the reviews.

 

[MER0828]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Heard a few different opinions on the Bushnells interested to see how it stacks up...they also came out with those 1600 ARC rangefinding binos I wish they would send you to review.

 

[Csf45]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

awesome, time for me to pick up a new scope and these are a couple ive been lookin at

 

[generalquark]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Wish the Weaver would come out with a 3-12. It seems alot of companies avoid this range.

 

[Chickeneye]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

definitely looking forward the what you have to say about the bushnells. i keep hearing mixed reviews

 

[Sespe]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Man, this is worse than waiting for Christmas. I am in the market for one of these scopes, need to buy before something else breaks in the house (it was the dryer this week).

 

[Krav69]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

If you need my help at the CRC pulling targets, I can roll out with you.

 

[Lowlight]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

I just finished the Pat Rogers Operator course, I have a few things to catch up on so I should be hitting the range first part of next week.

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Miss one little apostrophe, and every one is a comedien, but that is what happens when I reply with my iPad.

Pat Rogers' Carbine Operator Course.

 

[Graham]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Oh.

How was it?

 

[Lowlight]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

As expected, very good, not only did i learn something I got a nice set of tools for the tool box

 

[tmshot]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

looking forward to the 4200 review. Its between this and the viper PST for me.

 

[Dsparil]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

TMShot and Vortex is claiming the viper PST under the same warranty as the Razor. so I'm wondering if this thing is just as bombproof.

 

[BrettSass844]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

will be interesting! I am considering the weaver and the 4200 for my next build. Along with a SS and a couple others. After that it is SAVE SAVE SAVE for a couple nicer pieces of glass as my wife would have a stroke if I dropped a grand on a scope right now!

 

[B.Bates]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

any updates on the weaver scope?

the $100 discount is about over, i was hoping for a review before the cut off to help me make the decision

 

[Lowlight]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

I have it mounted up but had a fever yesterday so I didn't get to the range. However Midway will be offering the "Hide" members promo codes for the month of June, so don't sweat the discount, it will still be available.

The scope is exactly inline with the scopes similar in its class, the SWFA SS, and the Bushnell Tactical, so you are getting a very similar scope, although it is SFP. One note the Weaver is a 1" tube, so I don't know what the mounted and zeroed travel range is yet. But I will have more details in less than week.

Patience. I have none.

It's when they charge $100 less for a product than the normal retail price.

They have been on sale at midway for the past month, sale ends this month.

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Interesting. I am looking for something to top an AR, and not break the bank.

Me too. I think the message is, "hang on, neat stuff coming."

 

[chadg]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnell

Hey lowlight what are you mounting the weaver on to test it? Bolt of semi?

 

[Lowlight]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnel

Bolt, mainly because I had no 1" rings and had to get some. I don't think it will work on my semis.

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnel

I have one of the weaver 3x10x40 tactical scopes from midway . I paid 299 for it . I am new here and dont want to crash somebody else's review especially when it appears the op is a trusted member who does this often . Im sure he is better at this than I. what I will say is I shot some 3 shot groups at 300 yds and made a 4 inch group in the head of a b-27 target. the load was some blemished 147 grain boatail fmj sitting over 40 grains of 3031 , more than likely not the most accurate load ,also my barrel is not free floated I will tend to that later this summer . here is a pic just to prove I have one

Wow dude you are new here.

Hey Frank... Did you ever get time to finish this review?

Thanks.

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnel

Given a choice which would be better Bushnell Elite 3200 5-15 x 40 Tactical or the 3-10 x 40 Weaver Tactial? Both are mil dot tacticals.

 

[fdkay]

Re: Soon to be Reviewed -Weaver Tactical / Bushnel

As far as I know, Bushnell does not make an elite 3200 3-10x tactical.
They make a fixed power 10x tacitcal that is the best bang for the buck going, but it has limitations.

You are correct, my bad. I meant to show Weaver in the 3-10 x 40.
