This is an old Bushnell 4-12x40,with an adjustable objective. The scope has two horizontal lines in the reticle, one center, and a lighter one just above it. The reticle is on the second focal plane. It also has a bdc elevation turret marked from 100-500 yards. The mag ring is also marked for various ranges under every mag setting.
All help appreciated!
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

Bushnell made a Banner with the features descripted. NB! made by B & L

Have a look at fleabay for similar scopes....

Edit: There was also a Scopechief IV with stadialines and similar attributes.

Graham, would you happen to have a manual? I could really use a copy.

I don't think I do Billy.... I haven't used in years... need to test it and confirm it works and if so sell it maybe.....
