Bushnell adds to its line of AR Optics, designed for Modern Sporting Rifles, introducing scopes tailored for popular and prevalent calibers.
The AR Optics series now encompass .22 LR, .223/5.56, .308 Win, .300 BLK, 6.5 Creedmoor and .224 Valkyrie scope offerings. The scopes offer fully multi-coated optics and custom BDC reticles built for precise elevation holds. The scopes, totaling 11 models, are available from 1-4x24mm to 4.5-18x40mm with eight various reticles.
“Each scope has a throw-down power-change lever that can be set to two different heights,” Bushnell Tactical product manager Bryan Parrish said in a press release. “It makes these scopes as customizable as the rifles they share a name with.”
In addition to providing more specific caliber scope options, Bushnell adds the TRS-26 and First Strike red dots to its inventory. The newer TRS-26 offers a longer battery life and brighter 3 MOA dot with 26mm tube body.
