Hey Guys,
I recently picked up an older Bushnell scopechief 3x9x40. I looks like an older scope made in Japan during the 80's. This particular model comes with what's called a "prismatic rangefinder"
and a "bullet drop compensator". Basically you are suppose to aim a target and then dial in the bullet drop compensator to match the yards displayed by the rangefinder.
I was was wondering if anyone out there used one of these scopes back in the day? If so, did anyone actually use any of the dials or did you find them more of a gimmick? Anyone that actually owned one and could provide some tips or tricks it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
