Bushnell Sentry 18-36x50 Reviews

Bushnell Sentry 18-36x 50mm came up short!- Better...!
by scottls1 from Kalispell, MT USA, 2010-03-29

I had trialed 7 top-rated spotting scopes, trying to find a GOOD compact/lightweight/sharp scope for my hunting backpack/range!?

At the time I tried this Bushnell scope-
The Leupold Gold Ring 15-30x 50mm had the sharpest optics, but 50mm was no-good/dim in low-light conditions! The Max 30x was also not strong enough, to judge racks at long distance (I could see .30 bullet holes in the black, at 200yds. though!)!
~~

This 18-36x scope came in 2nd for Sharpness, but 50mm just wasn't enough for low-light conditions?
For the low price, it was pretty darn good though!-

1. It was lightweight, and compact for back-packing up a mountain!
3. I could see .30 holes in the black at 200Yds., but didn't stay anywhere near in focus as you increased power (most require a little tweaking...)!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My non-shill/fanboy recommendation!
I finally found a GREAT "compact/lightweight/Sharp..." spotting scope/Tri-pod combination (cost $less than MANY I trialed!)!-

1. The Bushnell Elite 15-45x 60mm Spotting Scope Bushnell Spotting Scope Elite 15-45x60
2. The "Vanguard MARS 1 tripod" is compact/lightweight/Solid Vanguard MARS 1 OS Tri Pod- This link is the Amazon "OS" tripod model (there was a Better model for me!)!-
If you Google "Vanguard MARS 1 tripod"- you can find the "non-OS" model which is more compact/cheaper, and weighs 10oz... less!
The hot-shoe fits most all other Vanguard tripods (I feel Vanguard tripods are the best quality for my $buck!)!

ENJOY!

Good Deal for the Money

The sky's the limit price wise for spotting scopes but this scope is very reasonably priced.I use this one for zeroing in my rifles at 100yds and it works great for me. It even comes with its own case. The only real drawback is a flimsy tripod. Don't leave it standing on tripod next to you on tripod unless you're firing a small caliber rifle.
