Bushnell prime 3-10-36 AO

[Axis II]

Anyone have experience with this scope? Need a replacement for a 22 bolt action and it’s between this and a 3-9 Burris or 2-7 vortex. I can get the prime scope for $75.

I want AO or SF on any .22 scope I'm using now. I had one of the Bushnell a17? Scopes which were the older 3-10x36s and it was actually quite nice. It got replaced by a 3-9x40 Bushnell ultrahd, as I do prefer sidefocus.

So bushnell discontinued that scope what do you think as far as longevity? I’m looking for clarity and toughness.

The Primes have a lifetime warranty. Bushy will replace it with the new model if it fails. As to how tough they are, i dont know. My buddy has the scope I had, and still uses it often, spins the bdc, and bangs it around too, and its still going.
Optically I found it to be excellent, for a 50 dollar scope, more inline with the 150-200 dollar range, but again mine was an older version.
