Hey all...

Does anyone buy from this Company (Optics Planet). I see they having free shipping.   

Thank you for your time....

I get almost all of my scopes and rings from them. Great prices! Fast friendly service and free shipping. Never had a problem with them.

I've bought a few items from them - the last was ESS shooting glasses. Good prices and service, but you should probably call in your order (to check availability) because they do not let you know if they have your item in stock until well after your order has been placed.

I've ordered from them several times with good results.

I was just looking at their riflescopes page:

Looks pretty good, Thanks for the tip!

I've ordered from them.  Nothing significant, just a few ammo boxes.  Prices were good and so was the service.

Thanks guys for your input.

I am looking at this one http://www.opticsplanet.net/bush-rs-bnr-714124.html

It will be going on a 223 H&R ultra and maybe on a 17hmr
I have a friend that has two of them and he recommends them highly.

Any opinion about this scope?

Thanks

Stomp,
Have a couple of them. I'm not all that impressed with them. I had one on my 22 Hornet Handi
and one on my 17 Mach 2 Sporster. They were OK when I first got them, but they seemed to have
lost something. Point of impact is not as consistent as it once was. I'm in the process of
replacing them with Mueller APV's. I should have gone with the APV's from the start, but
I falsely thought I could save a couple of bucks and get by with with the Bushnell. It
didn't work out for me. I have had a APV on my 223 Bull Handi for over a year now and
it has been just awesome! Very clear optics. Better than the Bushnell in my opinion.
Easier magnification adjustment than the Bushnell too. It also comes with a free sunshade.
They are a few bucks more, but way worth it. Free UPS ground shipping from EABCO. I'm
not the only one who thinks the Muller APV is a great scope at a great price.

Not on that particular model but I've had a Bushnell Sportview 3.5-10x45 w/PolarCaps on my .223 since I bought it.
Always did nicely for me.

Stomp,

All I buy is Bushnell scopes, I figure that after almost 40 years of use without a failure theres gotta be something to them. with that said, For a CF I would'nt use less than the Trophy series. The Legend series is top of the Bushnell line, the 3200,4200, and 6500 are all Bausch and Lomb scopes while they are very nice the legend is about equivalent to the 3200 in the same powers. JMHO. I have 3 of these http://www.opticsplanet.net/bu-5-15x40m-legend.html on three different CF's and have had 0 trouble out of all. I also purchase all my scopes anymore through Optics Planet or Shoptics.com they sometimes have a better price and still free shipping.

I would like thank everyone for the response to my question.
I'm still a little unsure about which scope I will buy.
As old man once said I will just have to ponder on it for a while

Again Thanks and GOD BLESS
Stomp
