I buy every old bushnell I can find. The 70/80,s vintage were jap made, steel tubed and very strong. I usually pay next to nothing for them because they aren,t a Leupold or tactical but I think they are great. I have a 4 x Wide angle on a 308 lever and I haven't needed to change a zero since 1983. If my rifle ever fails I could take it off and beat things to death with it. I picked up a 1.5 -4 power a week ago and it is clear ,strong and beautifully old school. The old ones are a good thing.

If you can get the Bushnells made in Japan, they do tend to be a lot better quality all around then the junk they produce in indonesia and the philippines.

I tend to agree with happyhunter, I have several old Japanese made Bushnell which have given decades of great service. I also have 2 American made Elite,(former Bausch & Lomb) which are as good as the Leupold I replaced with them.for clarity and eye relief. Elites have all been made in Japan since 2004. Look for where they were made and buy accordingly, Cheers.

Math, it's not rocket surgery

I now have 4 elites a 6-24x50 (ET6245FG) a 5-15x40 (ET5154) and 2 3-9x40 one is a E3940 (elite) and one is 353940 (3500 elite) I don't know the difference between the last 2 but the appear to be identical other than a few different markings and badges on the scopes.
Happy with bushnell scopes.

Probably just an alteration of the same design.

Replacing one minor component with a stronger one or something along those lines to resolve a minor issue discovered after release.
