I was looking at that same Bushnell scope for my AR. Does yours have the deer in the crosshairs symbol on the other side? I kinda don't want being that I'm not going to hunt with it. Also, that scope has the back-up irons on top, can you co-witness with the iron sights you already have?

 

BTW, nice set up.

 

My Bushnell red dot does not have a deer in crosshairs symbol anywhere on it. Mine is the 2nd generation red dot. The only markings on it on "Bushnell" on the side and a "B" on the windage adjustment screw cover.

 

I have not used the back up iron sights on top of the scope, yet. I always forget they're there.

 

My red dot crosshair co-witnesses with my original Bushmaster front sight and my GG&G spring-loaded back up in-line sight very nicely. I ordered a GG&G spring-loaded front sight/gas block today because, even though the red dot co-witnesses with my front sight nicely, I find the front sight distracting when trying to focus on only the red dot and target behind it. The new front sight will stay folded down unless my red dot goes down, in which case I press 2 buttons to deploy my front and rear back up sights and I'm back to cookin'.

 

P.S. This Bushnell isn't an ACOG or an Eotech but it's damn good for what it is - a battery powered red dot that's slightly heavy and has no magnification. Mine has worked like a charm and I expect it to be accurate up to 100 yards as soon as it's sighted in properly. I got mine for $160 shipped off eBay from Optics Planet. I'm not an LEO or a soldier, so it's hard for me to justify spending approximately $900 on an optic I'll mostly be using for target shooting and hunting inside 100 yards.

Thanks RichieDubs, I stll like the EOtech model (not sure which one but it retails for 400 dollars or so) but I'm broke as a joke.

In case you're wondering what the Bushnell Trophy 1x32 red dot reticle looks like, here is a picture I snapped of it pointed at a blue sky:

 

Nice pic

She's dead on, to the moon!
