I actually ordered a second one of these immediately after recieving the first.
The clarity of this scope at 90' at a target is amazing. You can easily count the #9 shots on the card. I would say that it may be a bit heavy for hunting BUT if the weight doesn't bother you this is just a great scope at a really good price. It is prefered over one that costs just about four times the price, really. I was hoping for good, better than average but I feel confident in saying as long as you don't get a bad apple that can be in any bunch, you will be happy with this model "Bushnell Banner 6-24x40 Rifle Scope Mill Dot Recticle" . As a note, the front is adjustable though not clear in photo or description on every site which made me hesitant to initially purchase. Just a solid buy if you are in the market.

Recoil kills this scope,

I mounted the banner 6-24 on a Rem 700V 308. It worked ok for about 110 rounds. Apparently recoil killed it. When I would fire, the scope would blur slightly. It would not hold zero anymore. I wasted a box of custom loads trying to figure it out. Took it off and shook it, and there is pieces rattling around inside. I am sending it back to Bushnell for warranty. They say it was shock tested on, and rated to, a .375 caliber... whatever that means. If they choose to fix it I might try it on my 243, but its probably more suited for a very small caliber gun. Go with a Nikon or Leupold. You wont regret it in the long run.

The scope is new but it makes a little noise when adjusting it like there is dirt in the threads
