The Bushnell R3 3-9×40 DZ22 rifle scope is engineered to provide precise optical performance for .22LR platforms. This optic integrates a versatile magnification range with a ballistic-specific reticle, optimizing target engagement from close to intermediate distances. It is designed for shooters who require consistent accuracy and robust construction.
Key Features
Optical Performance
The 3-9x variable magnification provides adaptability for diverse shooting scenarios, from target practice to competitive rimfire events. A 40mm objective lens facilitates adequate light transmission, contributing to a clear and discernible sight picture under varying light conditions. Lenses are multi-coated to mitigate glare and enhance image clarity and contrast.
Reticle System
The integral DZ22 (Drop Zone .22LR) reticle is specifically calibrated for the ballistics of common .22LR ammunition. This design provides precise holdover points, enabling rapid and accurate elevation adjustments without manipulating turrets for every shot. This system streamlines target acquisition and shot placement, particularly at extended ranges where bullet drop becomes a critical factor.
Construction and Reliability
Constructed from a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum, the R3 chassis ensures structural integrity and durability. The optic is nitrogen purged and O-ring sealed, rendering it waterproof and fog proof. This robust build guarantees consistent performance and zero retention across various environmental conditions and recoil profiles inherent to .22LR firearms.
Adjustability
Precision windage and elevation turrets offer positive, repeatable click adjustments for zeroing and trajectory compensation. These turrets are capped to protect settings from inadvertent adjustments and environmental ingress, maintaining zero integrity during transport and field use.
