Bushnell has released three new lines of hunting optics: Prime, Nitro, and Forge. The Prime line is positioned as a starting point with essential hunter features, featuring 1-inch tubes and second focal plane reticles. The Nitro line introduces first and second focal plane options, 30mm and 1-inch tubes, and color choices (gunmetal gray or black). The Forge line is their expert-level offering, blending tactical features like throw levers, zero stop, and locking turrets, inspired by their Elite Tactical line, and designed for clarity in all conditions with advanced glass like ED Prime.

This video debunks the myth that 30mm scope tubes are inherently superior to 1-inch tubes for light transmission. While 30mm tubes can offer more internal adjustment range for elevation and windage, crucial for long-range shooting, the primary determinant of optical quality is the glass itself. A higher quality 1-inch scope with superior glass will outperform a cheap 30mm scope.
