Buy recommendations Bushnell 1-6x24 R5

Hi all,

Wanted to hear the community's thoughts on this scope. I was planning to get a red dot for the makasi but thought this might be a better option.

My usage will mainly be target shooting at an indoor range.

i have one on a .44, its fine if you can find one for $250 still. though i keep killing batteries on it. overkill for an indoor range though. i also have a crossfire HD 1-4x and i prefer the reticle on the bushnell. i probably woundnt pay the $340 or whatever they mainly go for now though

I was comparing to vortex 1-4, Alex's homebrew, etc. Bushnell seems like a good price compared to competitors.

Just a heads up, the Vortex crossfire and the Alex homebrew are the same base scope! Alex gets his from the same maker, but he gets it with some additions.  So it'd either normal vortex and lifetime warranty, or upgrades Homebrew but more limited warranty 

Bushnell is good too. A bit more zoom, if you can get it similar  priced, then definitely go for it!
