Found a deal on these for less than 100.00 new. Anyone have experience with these? Stay zeroed? Battery life?
Great red dot!,

Great red dot!,
X2, I have one and they are very reliable, sturdy and hold their zero. I just put mine on my son's Rem 870. It re-zeroed easily.
Bushnell makes a good product for it's price. I've had quite a few of their scopes and binoculars and never had any problems. The only Bushnell red-dot I have currently is the trs-25 and it is an awesome little sight! The only thing I have heard about the multi reticle model is some people were having a poi shift when changing reticles. Not sure how true that is, just what I gathered when reading some reviews when I was shopping around for a red-dot awhile back. I am going to be needing another dot for a gun I'm setting up and it probably will either be another Bushnell or an ultra dot if I decide to go the tube style sight again. If you get this sight post up a mini review if you can, it would be great getting first hand info from a member. ward
Well I just accidentally did a battery test. Left the bushnell trophy turned on for 3 days and when I got back in town from working I noticed it. Still working fine. Use it this summer and see how long before it dies. I don't hunt 72 hours in a season so I think I will be fine if I change the battery before every turkey season.
What if your battery dies and you just aim the center of the scope at what your aiming at. Where will it hit then?
Right now Amazon has the red dots for $60.00 with FREE shipping! :z-winnersmiley:

Thanks for the heads up Stickbow. I have a b-square mount on the way for my bps 10 and I might have to grab me one for it.
That's a great deal, I like the 3 moa dot but 6 would work fine. Thanks for the heads up.
I really like mine. Green Dot in low light and the Red dot in sunny conditions. I owned it for 5 years and zero problems.
I have one on a 22 and it works fine. I just wonder if they can take recoil
I looked on Busnell web page and a couple of sites, Midway and sports optics. Couldn't find anything in specs about resistance in G's to recoil.
Tried again looking at numerous sites trying to find anything at all on recoil and the scope. All I could find is it said it was shockproof?
I have a Red dot on my 835 and it works GREAT! I shoot 3 1/2's in mine exclusively and have been on two hunts the last two springs, where I flew, and I've had no problems with zero.
I had mine for 5 years on my 1300. No problem with holding zero. I am buying another one when I decide between the 870 or the 835 purchase.
