Your opinion on Bushnell Spacemaster 20-60x60mm
Gentlemen,
I know this question was asked hundred times...
Good affordable spotter.
The situation in my case is "complicated" by necessity of LER (Long Eye Relief) or even extra LER.
I'm sick and tired removing glasses every time when I look into it.
Unfortunately not very many have that feature (LER eyepiece).
What caught my eye was this model:
SKU# 78-7360
Bushnell Spacemaster 20-60x60mm

Has anyone had any experience with this one?
Any Pros or Cons?
And of course - the question of all the times,
Can you see holes on the target at 300 yards?
Any feedback would be really appreciated
Thank you in advance!

I had one, VERY good. BUT! when you went to focus it would move all around... If I remember you used the far end from your eye to focus?? Zoom was at your eye. I did get a scope that has the focus knob down by your eye, and it is a knob just for focus.... not a dial ring.
It will hurt you, More than it will hurt me..

I have a Spacemaster from the '70's I am still using at the range. With 60x you might be able to see holes in the target at 300 yards if you don't have any heat distortion. At 200 it is not much problem with 45x. These are not Leicas but for the price Bushnell makes decent optics. 0 -
Gentlemen,
First of all, thank you so much for your replies.

200 yards is not an issue at all because I can see holes through my 6-24x riflescopes. Even 4.5-14x Lupies do almost as fine. But 300 yards range becomes kind of a barrier for riflescopes and even for some spotters.
That's why your input is so much appreciated
Best regards
