It looks like Bushnell Elite scopes have disappeared from Cabela's and Midway's line-up. Is the Bushnell Forge the new flagship of Bushnell?

I don't think so, Im guessing a new Japan line with be coming out. Although, the Forge scopes look pretty good. The Elite closeouts are a bargain for what you get.

That's a really good deal, particularly now that it has the ED glass in it. If they could have shaved 6oz off the scope it would just about be the perfect hunting scope.

I have that new lrhs on preordered I have a Gen 1 and an lrts and they are some of my favorite scopes.

According to the hide are going to introducing a new XRS3 and LRTS. They have the DMR Pro which is a heck of great scope. Long story short they are not doing away with the elite tac line.

Still a pretty good price here. Call them, they might drop a few $ for you.

That would be a great one for an AR pistol or carbine. I am looking for a scope for PRS long range. I ended up going a different route. CT 5 series. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1020619511?pid=961295 on Sale for $699

Uncle Bubba, I had bought the Bushnell ET for a bullpup and ended up getting talked into a trade before the scope arrived.

Be sure to let us know what you think about the CT.
