EER DOA QBRBUSHNELL SCOPE R3 3-9X40 4.5"
The Bushnell R3 3-9x40 rifle scope is a versatile hunting optic built for shooters who want reliable magnification and a clean sight picture without breaking the bank. With a 3-9x zoom range and 40mm objective lens, it handles everything from close-range brush hunting to mid-distance field shots—the kind of scope that works just as hard as you do, whether you're glassing timber or setting up on a ridge. The 4.5-inch eye relief gives you a comfortable sight window, and the R3 DOA-QBR reticle is designed around ballistic holdovers, so you can dial in a zero and trust your aim across varied distances.
Bushnell scopes earn their place in the field through straightforward, no-fuss performance. This isn't a race-gun optic or a tactical platform scope—it's the kind of glass that's equally at home on a deer rifle, an elk gun, or a varmint setup. The combination of magnification range, objective size, and reticle design makes this a natural fit for hunters who want one scope to handle their seasonal needs without overthinking it.
If you're building or upgrading a hunting rifle and need a scope that bridges the gap between budget and capability, the Bushnell R3 3-9x40 delivers the straightforward optical performance and practical reticle that field-proven hunting scopes are built around.
