The Bushnell R3-3940S3 riflescope delivers reliable magnification performance for hunters and shooters who demand consistent accuracy across varying distances. This 3-9x40mm variable power optic provides the versatility needed for both close-range shots and extended reach applications.
What Makes This Different
The R3 series incorporates multi-coated optics that maximize light transmission while reducing glare in challenging lighting conditions. Unlike basic riflescopes that compromise clarity at higher magnifications, this model maintains sharp resolution throughout its 3x to 9x zoom range. The 40mm objective lens diameter strikes the optimal balance between light gathering capability and overall weight.
Key Features
- 3-9x variable magnification with smooth power ring adjustment
- 40mm objective lens for enhanced light gathering performance
- Multi-coated optics reduce reflection and improve image clarity
- 1-inch tube diameter fits standard scope rings and mounts
- Durable black matte finish eliminates unwanted glare
- Waterproof and fogproof construction for all-weather reliability
- Resettable windage and elevation turrets for precise adjustments
Field performance remains consistent across temperature extremes and humidity changes thanks to nitrogen purging that prevents internal fogging. The scope handles recoil from standard hunting calibers while maintaining zero retention. Competition shooters appreciate the clear sight picture at 9x magnification for precision target work, while hunters benefit from the wide field of view at 3x power for quick target acquisition in dense cover.
