The most proven riflescope in history is now deadlier than ever. From the class-leading 91 percent light transmission to the nearly indestructible one-piece tube, every aspect of the new Trophy XLT is optimized, helping America's best-selling riflescope meet a new standard of excellence. The Trophy XLT 4-12x40 scope--which includes Bushnell's ultra-precise DOA 600 reticle--starts with fully multicoated optics, helping the scope create ultra-bright images at those troublesome moments between dark and almost dark. Bushnell also put the scope through rigorous recoil testing to ensure that its one-piece tube performs dependably in the field. And thanks to the Butler Creek flip-up scope covers, your scope's lenses will stay protected from precipitation and fogging.
The DOA 600 reticle is the scope's centerpiece, however, as it dramatically extends your effective range and helps you judge a buck's trophy quality in record time. Short for Dead On Accurate, DOA technology features Rack Bracket reference lines, which help you accurately gauge the size of whitetail and mule deer antlers at distances that are difficult for standard optics. Because these lines represent the distance between an average deer's ears, you'll know the approximate distance once the lines fit the image. It all adds up to drop-dead certainty and fewer excuses at the moment of truth. Offering aiming points from 100 to 600 yards in 100-yard increments, the DOA 600 is compatible with today's most popular deer-hunting bullet/load combinations (Bushnell also offers a DOA 250 for muzzleloaders).
Ideal for long-range accuracy and field judging, the Trophy XLT 4-12x40 is guaranteed to make your trophy room runneth over. Other details include a fast-focus eyepiece, 1/4 MOA fingertip windage and elevation adjustments, and a 100-percent waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof housing.
 The scope's DOA 600 reticle includes reference lines that help you determine the distance to your target. |

Pros: Bright, accurate, DOA really works.
Cons:Included lens caps are cool but interfere with adjustments at both ends of scope and with rifle bolt. DOA only works on 12 power unless you remember or write down other settings.
I'm not a real expert when it comes to rifle scopes and long-range shooting. The only other scope I've ever owned is a 3-9 Leupold goldring manufactured in 1982, although I've shot many others. I did a bit of testing when the scope first arrived and it definitely is brighter than the old Leupold in low-light conditions before sun-up. I really love the DOA sight. What prompted me to buy this scope is that I've been shooting with fellows with big rifles and tactical scopes who can hit a coffee can at 1200 yards (depending on favorable winds of course). We were going on an elk hunt where the shots would be between 400 and 1000 yards. We had two large guns in our group for long shots, but I wanted to be able to kill an elk out to 600 yards with my own gun. Well, I'd never sighted my Winchester bolt 30-.06 at more than 200 yards and was skeptical that it would be accurate at much more than 400 yards -- most especially with me shooting it! Imagine my surprise at when, after sighting in the scope at 100 yards, it was actually quite accurate with factory load ammo (Winchester Super-X 150 gr.) on all of the settings out to 600 yards. We experimented with shooting farther using the DOA markings by reducing the the magnification. With factory load ammo this didn't work too well -- at magnification 5 the average of the shots at 850 yards was on the target but the shots were wildly inconsistent. My buddy offered to hand-load some ammo for me with long-range bullet tips and a bit hotter round (only about 100 fps). The upshot is that the gun is still accurate out to 600 yards and shoots moderately accurately (within a foot) at 800 yards by reducing the magnification to 6 and using the 600-yard DOA mark.
There is a feature that is supposed to give you an approximate distance to a an adult deer by aligning marks on the DOA reticle with the ears of the deer. Unfortunately this year I mostly hunted elk so this feature didn't come up very often. During the deer hunt my buddies rangefinder was broken so we couldn't compare the actual distance to the distance suggested by the DOA reticle. I'm hoping someone will post on that since it's potentially a great feature, especially for quick shots. Also I'd like to know if there is a someway to use it on an elk. In other words: are there markings on an elk that tend to be approximately 24 inches apart?
In conclusion I'm thrilled with the scope itself. I worry about longevity, but for now I'm a happy camper.
Included with the scope are some very nice spring-loaded lens caps. The problem is that they interfere with the operation of the scope and the gun. Two minor issues are with the focus adjustment (not a big deal, it shouldn't come up while hunting), and the parallax adjustment (more of a big deal but still only slightly annoying -- if the target is far enough away that a parallax adjustment is necessary you will likely have time to pull the cap assembly off the end of the scope). However, the real annoyance is that several times I jammed the bolt because of the lens cap mechanism. Now it would seem an obvious and easy thing to avoid. However, the problem is that the bolt mechanism just barely grazes the cap and so you don't feel it hitting the cap, what you feel is the gun jamming for some reason, so in the heat of the moment you are a bit confused. This all might come down to having a 50 year-old gun with a bolt mechanism which has had lots use or my inability to remember to position the cap so it won't brush the bolt. Anyway, the scope itself is great so I won't mark it down for issues with free accessories.

I received the riflescope in excellent condition and in a timely manner. The scope was "squared-up", mounted and bore-sighted by a certified gun smith. The scope was mounted on a 700 series Remington rifle (270 cal.). On the firing range (at 100 yds.) and using the prescribed "power setting", it took no time in adjusting (1/4" per click) the elevation and windage so that consistent groups of less then 2" were achieved. I particularly like the reticle, it allows for adjustments in target distance to be easily made.The lens caps on the scope were convenient and easily engaged. This rifle scope was a great value for the price and made my rifle "Dead on Accurate".

Over all I like the scope for the money. There are a few draw backs to it. It has a very short eye relief; I put it on a 7mm rem mag which proved not to be the best combination, on a lower recoil gun it would not be a problem. The glass is not the best in lower light conditions, it tends to get a little hazy on the higher magnifications. The lens caps are good but they tend to get in the way when you are hunting but that is an easy fix, I just took them off. Other than that it is a good scope for the money, I guess you get what you pay for.
