Title: Tru Glo integrated scope for 11-87
Post by: Turkeydan on April 05, 2011, 01:36:23 PM
Anyone using this scope? I am considering switching to a scope. I like the fact that it is a one piece-integrated unit.

DONT DO IT

I had that scope and after a few shots using turkey loads that dot would float all over the place. Would not shoot they same each shot.
I purchased a bushnell red/green dot and it has been great.

I've shot 15-20 rounds through mine.  Some 2 3/4  field loads, some 3 inch Winchester 4 shot turkey loads.  So far, so good.

I have the Bushnell Trophy red dot with the circle/dot plexon one of my 835's.  LOVE IT!!  I shoot some seriously stiff recoiling loads and it has held up beautifully.  Holds its zero and the battery that is in it now was put in it 3 years ago.  I still keep a couple extra batteries on hand just in case but I don't see why it won't last me at least another spring.
