BUSHNELL R3 3-9X40 DOA-QBR BLK

Description

The Bushnell R3 3-9×40 is a hunting riflescope built for shooters who need reliable optical performance from dawn through last light without spending on features they will never use. Its second focal plane design keeps the reticle at a consistent apparent size across the magnification range, which makes it easier to pick up quickly in low contrast conditions — the trade-off being that the DOA Quick Ballistic holdover marks are calibrated to work at a specific power setting rather than across the full zoom range. For most whitetail and general-purpose hunting distances, that is a practical arrangement that keeps the sight picture uncluttered at lower magnifications.

Extended eye relief gives a shooter more room between eye and ocular, which matters on harder-recoiling rifles and for anyone mounting the scope further forward than a conventional position. The adjustable objective allows you to dial out parallax error at varying ranges rather than relying on a fixed parallax setting, which improves precision when you are shooting at distances significantly different from the factory parallax zero.

The tube is machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and nitrogen-purged, so internal fogging from rapid temperature swings is not a concern. Bushnell’s EXO Barrier coating is applied to all external lens surfaces; it works by bonding at a molecular level to repel water, oil, and debris rather than simply sitting on top of the glass, which means it holds up through seasons of field use. IPX7 waterproofing rounds out a construction package suited to genuine field conditions. The scope ships with capped windage and elevation turrets, keeping adjustments protected between range sessions, and carries Bushnell’s lifetime unconditional warranty.
