Description
The Bushnell R3 4-12×40 with Drop Zone 22LR reticle is a rimfire-focused riflescope designed for .22 LR rifles and other small-caliber platforms. The 4-12x magnification range offers enhanced reach over standard lower-power optics, providing improved target resolution and holdover precision for extended rimfire distances while maintaining a practical field of view at lower powers.
Featuring the Drop Zone 22LR ballistic reticle in the second focal plane, this optic delivers calibrated holdover points specifically tailored to .22 LR trajectories. The consistent reticle size across all magnification settings simplifies aiming and shot execution without the need for turret dialing. Built on a rugged one-piece 1 inch tube with multi-coated optics for clarity and EXO Barrier® lens protection for environmental resistance, this scope balances durability with performance for field and range use.
