Just wondering if anyone has experience with a 6-24x50 FFP with a illuminated btr-mil reticle? looking to buy one and was hoping to get some opinions.
possibly with some through the scope pics?

Not a fan of the illuminated reticles (personal preference only, nothing wrong with them)

Good glass on that though. Argon purging for good scope life.

One thing I give Bushnell high points for is there Rain Guard coating. It really does work well.
See you on the firing line.

The rain guard does work well.

A mate of mine has the 6500 with the same coating and left this scope out in the bush for the night on a really misty/foggy night.

Coating of moisture on it in the morning obviously, but it basically just shook off and was ready to go.

I don't care for the lower end Bushnells, but the Elite series are good IMO.

Glass is good as mentioned above, and the illuminated reticles are sharp.

Target turrets are a handy feature too, no screwing around with a coin or anything like that for adjustments.

Other puny calibre rifles... What man would want you now?

Can't give you any through scope pictures, but I've used one a few times and the reticle is nice and sharp.

Good glass as mentioned above.

I reckon you'll be happy with it.
