FAST FOCUS EyEPIECE The fast-focus eyepiece dial is found on the ocular end of the Bushnell Elite Tactical Riflescope. Use this adjustment to obtain a reticle image that appears sharp to your eyes. If adjustment is needed, look at a distant object for several seconds without using your scope. Then, shift your vision quickly, looking through the scope at a plain background. Turn the fast-focus eyepiece dial clockwise or counterclockwise until the reticle pattern is sharp and clear. The eyepie

ELEvATION AND WINDAGE TURRETS ™ The Bushnell Elite Tactical Riflescope features T-Lok (locking) turrets, which provide audible and visual references. When a turret is lifted (elevated) into the upward position it can be rotated in either direction to make appropriate adjustments. Each turn of the turret provides an audible “click” which coincides with a movement of the visible reference point on the turret knob. Ad- ditionally, clicks can be felt by your fingers as the turret knob moves. Each

Special Note: SCOPES EqUIPPED WITh ThE Z-LOk™ ELEv ATION TURRET If your scope is equipped with the Z-Lok zero stop elevation turret, the scope’s windage and elevation controls are positioned in the center of their travel at the factory. This will allow a minimum of 15 mils (or 50 moa) of reticle travel in the up or down direction on the elevation turret. The zero stop is not set at the factory, and will not interfere with reticle travel in the up or down direction. Use of the zero stop is op

SETTING A ZERO STOP (Z-Stop™ Models Only) For ERS and XRS Tactical Scopes with a zero stop feature, follow these steps to initially set your zero stop: 1) Ensure the turret is in its locked position by pressing down on the turret knob. Remove the turret knob cap screw using a coin or flathead screwdriver, set aside (Fig. 1). 2) Remove the turret knob and set aside (Fig. 2). There are two holes on the black inner locking cap which will provide access to the zero stop set screws. Loosen the t

The screws should be tightened until you feel them seat and then an additional ¼ revolution (approximately 1.5-2 inch pounds). Do not over-tighten as this will cause damage to the screws. 6) Replace the turret knob on to the turret by aligning the splines in the turret cap and the turret and orient your turret to “

Do not over-tighten as this will cause damage to the screws. 5) Push the inner cap to its “down” position (Fig. 6). Replace the turret knob onto the turret by aligning the splines in the turret cap and the turret (Fig. 7). Once the cap is properly seated (Fig. 8) insure that the rubber o-ring is in place replac

FIRST FOCAL PLANE RETICLE The Bushnell Elite Tactical Riflescopes covered by this manual have their reticles located in the first focal plane. Therefore, the reticle will increase in size when the magnification is increased. This feature allows the continued use of the mil measurement system contained in the reticle, regardless of the power setting. Second focal plane reticles restrict the user to making measurements at a specific power, as the reticle remains the same size and will not acc

In the example to the left using the H59 reticle, the shooter was attempting to hit a target in the center of the crosshairs. The actual point of impact hit 4 Mils down and 3 Mils left indicated by the red dot. Adjust the elevation dial 4 Mils up/windage dial 3 Mils right. Another way to look at this is to determine what adjustment needs to be done with the turrets to move the red dot so it is centered in the middle of

BUShNELL MIL DOT RETICLE The Bushnell Mil Dot Reticle provides a total of ten Mils on both the vertical and horizontal 1 Mil crosshairs. One Mil is measured from the middle of one dot to the middle of the next dot. The last Mil on the outer edges portion of the horizontal and vertical crosshair is measured from the center of the fourth Mil Dot from center to the edge of the thick line. You will notice the intersection of the crosshairs does not contain a Mil dot. This is to allow maximum tar

USING ThE MIL DOT RETICLE FOR RANGING The Equations: Size of target in yards X 1000 = Range in Yards Size of Target in Mils Size of target in inches X 27.778 = Range in Yards Size of target in Mils Size of target in inches X 25.4 = Range in Meters Size of target in Mils Example 1: Looking through the riflescope, I located a preset target that has a known size of 12”x12” square. By using the Mil Dots I measured the target to have a Mil reading of 1. What is my distance to

Example 2: Take the same size target but now the Mil reading is .75 (from crosshair intersection to bottom of first Mil Dot).
