Bushnell AR Optics Drop Zone-22 BDC Rimfire Reticle Riflescope Review

Bushnell Optics Drop Zone-22 BDC Rimfire Reticle Riflescope with Target Turrets

This Bushnell ar optics drop zone is a feature-packed rifle scope that isn’t as cheap as the two other models. But it has very good optics with nice features like bullet drop compensating reticle, side parallax adjustment knob, and target turrets.

Many reviewers can’t stop raving how well made this scope is; aside from how well it performs in the field. I like how its fully coated optics enables it to display sharp and clear images.

This Bushnell AR Optics is highly recommended to rifle owners who are into competitive shooting, hunting, and even recreational shooting.

This Bushnell AR Optics drop zone is Good build quality

You’ll notice how well made this scope is the moment you take it out of the box. It is built with a durable, one-inch tube. The scope measures just over 11 inches in length. It has a nice matte finish that makes it a beautiful complement to any AR-22 rimfire style weapon. It is also rustproof and scratch proof.

Superior optics

As I’ve mentioned earlier, the scope features multi-coated lenses. You won’t be surprised with the clarity and brightness of images you will see when you use this scope.

The glass is so clear and images are clean and bright even during low lighting conditions. I also like its fast focus eyepiece that translates to a clear sight image.

Easy to use

Another quality that makes this scope different from its competitors is the ease of using it. For starters, it has target turrets that make elevation and windage adjustments hassle-free and easy.

The BDC reticle, on the other hand, makes it easy for users to get their shots at longer distances without any guesswork.

Lastly, this scope is very easy to zero. You can go back to your original zero very quickly without having to recall how many clicks you have made.

2 to 7x magnification

This is another best rimfire scope that can be very handy when it comes to aiming at targets in close to medium range. With its 2x to 7x magnification, this scope can let you see your targets better. It is fine-tuned for targets at 50 yards and can perform very well at 100 yards.

Side Focus Parallax

This scope features a side focus parallax adjustment, which is unusual for a mid-range model. The side focus parallax can improve long range accuracy.

This feature makes the model ideal for hunters, long-range target shooters, and even varmint hunters who would want to take down prairie dogs and squirrels from afar.

Pros
  • It has some features found in more expensive units like side focus parallax
  • It is very easy to use
  • It is well made; durable, and sturdy
  • It has a good optical quality for its price range
Cons
  • May be hard to mount when used with low rings
  • Drop zone reticle can be hard to see

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does it come with rings?

A: It doesn’t come with rings; you’ll have to buy yours.

Q: Are the turrets lockable?

A: No.

 

Bushnell Optics Drop Zone-22 Review Conclusion
