Bushnell BDC Banner Scope F.A.Q.

How do I properly mount the Bushnell BDC Banner Scope on my rifle?

Begin by ensuring your rifle is unloaded. Use appropriate scope rings and a mounting base compatible with both your rifle and the scope. Position the scope on the rings, adjust for eye relief, and ensure crosshairs are level before tightening the ring screws evenly.

What is the process to zero the Bushnell BDC Banner Scope?

To zero your scope, start at a short range (25 yards) and fire a group of shots. Adjust the windage and elevation knobs to move the point of impact to the center. Repeat this process at your preferred zeroing distance (usually 100 yards).

How can I clean the lenses of my Bushnell BDC Banner Scope without damaging them?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a lens cleaning brush to remove dust. Apply a small amount of lens cleaner to the cloth (not directly on the lens) and gently wipe in a circular motion. Avoid using rough materials or excessive pressure.

What should I do if the crosshairs on my Bushnell BDC Banner Scope are not level?

Loosen the mounting rings slightly and rotate the scope until the crosshairs are level with the rifle. Use a bubble level for accuracy, and re-tighten the screws evenly once aligned.

Why is my Bushnell BDC Banner Scope fogging up and how can I prevent it?

Fogging is usually due to moisture. Ensure all seals are intact and consider using anti-fog sprays. Store the scope in a dry environment, and if the issue persists, contact Bushnell for possible repairs.

How do I adjust the BDC reticle for different distances?

Use the ballistic drop compensation (BDC) reticle by aligning the target with the appropriate drop point mark that corresponds to the range. Refer to the user manual for specific calibration details based on your ammunition.

What maintenance is required for the Bushnell BDC Banner Scope to ensure longevity?

Regularly check and tighten all screws, keep the lenses clean, and store the scope in a dry, cool place. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures and moisture, and periodically inspect for damage or wear.

How can I improve the clarity and brightness of the view through my Bushnell BDC Banner Scope?

Ensure the lenses are clean and free from obstructions. Adjust the eyepiece focus and make sure the objective lens is properly adjusted for the lighting conditions. Consider using anti-reflective lens coatings if available.

Why is my point of impact inconsistent when using the Bushnell BDC Banner Scope?

Ensure the scope is securely mounted and check for any movement in the mounting system. Verify that the ammunition is consistent and that environmental factors like wind are accounted for.

What should I check if the windage and elevation knobs are not responding on my Bushnell BDC Banner Scope?

Check for debris or obstructions around the knobs. Ensure they are not over-tightened and inspect for any damage. If the issue persists, consider professional servicing or contacting Bushnell support.
