Bushnell 3200 7-21 Clarity

[thub]

I have just put a Bushnell 3200 7-21 Elite on my 22-250 and took it to the range. From 7-14 power seems to be very clear but turn it up to 15-21 power seems to really lose clarity, has anyone else had this problem. I have two 4-12 Elites and love them but am going to send this one back and either ask to swap scopes or go to a better scope. I would really like some input on this. Thanks

Is this an AO scope? All my 3200s have been very clear at all powers.

Yes, and that is why I think it is messed up. I was really surprised at it because my 4-12's are great.

thub, I have a 4x12 3200 on a 7mag that is one the best scopes I have ever had. Better that my older Leupold VariX3 which is second best. But I purchased a new 3200 3x9 last summer and its no where near the optic quality the older bushy was. I think thier QC is not what it once was.

I agree

Although I have older Bushnells and they are very good, I switched up to Nikon for moderate priced scopes because I observed the same thing, just less pronounced, when trying some out across the parking lot at Cabelas, Reno

Bushnell Elites have the best warranty going, you can get all your money back in the first year, for any reason + lifetime after the 1st year.
