Bushnell R3 6-18x50 Riflescope Adjustable Objective DOA-QBR Reticle

The Bushnell R3 6-18x50 is built for the hunter or marksman who needs absolute confidence at the 300-yard line and beyond. While many budget optics suffer from "milky" images or blurred reticles at high power, this scope uses a massive 50mm objective lens to pull in every bit of available light. It solves the low-light visibility gap, ensuring your target remains crisp, and your holdovers stay sharp during the final minutes of legal shooting light.

Distance amplifies every small error, from parallax shift to a fingerprint on the glass. This system counters those friction points by integrating an Adjustable Objective (AO) for fine-tuned focus and EXO Barrier lens protection. This molecularly bonded coating sheds water, oil, and dust on contact, so a sudden rain shower or a dusty trek won't degrade your sight picture. It’s technical reliability designed to keep your focus on the shot, not the equipment.

Whether you’re glassing across a valley or holding on to a varmint at 18x magnification, the R3 maintains a flat, high-contrast image. The nitrogen-purged, one-piece tube eliminates internal fogging during rapid temperature swings, while the exterior coatings keep the glass clear of debris. It is a rugged, weather-blind optic that balances high-magnification power with the environmental durability required for extended sessions in the field.
