Bushnell Trophy 6-18x50 SFP

• 6-18x magnification range: The wide zoom span covers precise shot placement at longer distances while still giving enough flexibility for load development, varmint work, and general hunting use.
• 50 mm objective lens: A larger front lens helps maintain a brighter sight picture at higher magnification, which is useful when targets are small or light conditions begin to fade.
• Side-focus parallax adjustment: Adjusting parallax from the shooting position makes it easier to keep the reticle and target on the same focal plane, improving precision at varying distances.
• Fully multi-coated optics: Bushnell’s coated lens system supports contrast and light transmission, helping the image stay clearer and more usable in mixed light and against detailed backgrounds.
• Capped hunting turrets: Protected adjustment caps reduce the chance of accidental movement in the field, making the scope better suited to rifles that are carried often and zeroed to stay put.

About the Bushnell Trophy Series

The Bushnell Trophy series sits in Bushnell’s hunting-optics range as a practical line built around one-piece tube construction, fully multi-coated optics, and field-oriented features that matter to hunters more than target-style complexity. In Bushnell’s catalog, Trophy riflescopes have been offered with familiar hunting reticle choices such as Multi-X and DOA 600, giving the series a broad appeal from straightforward zero-and-hunt setups to shooters who want holdover references for longer shots.

The series has included configurations from 3-9x40 up to 6-18x50, along with select models that add side parallax adjustment for more precise focus at distance. Fast-focus eyepieces are part of the Trophy concept, keeping reticle setup simple and quick. Overall, the Trophy family is aimed at hunters who want dependable magnification ranges, solid low-light usability, and straightforward controls in a riflescope that remains easy to mount and carry. It is a line shaped around real field use rather than competition-style dialing, which is why capped turrets, familiar reticles, and practical optical performance define the series so well.

About the Bushnell Trophy 6-18x50 SFP

The Bushnell Trophy 6-18x50 SFP is the higher-magnification model in the Trophy hunting riflescope range, intended for shooters who need more precision on small targets or at longer distances. Its 6-18x magnification gives it a clear advantage for varmint hunting, rimfire precision work, and deliberate shots where target detail matters. At the same time, the 50.00 mm objective lens helps preserve image brightness as magnification rises, which is especially useful in the early morning or late evening when higher power can otherwise make the image appear dimmer.

This scope uses a second focal plane reticle, so the reticle keeps the same apparent size throughout the zoom range. In practice, that makes the aiming point easy to see at both low and high magnification and suits hunters who prefer a familiar reticle view rather than one that scales with power. The reticle is non-illuminated, keeping the system simple and avoiding extra controls or battery dependence.

For precision, the scope combines side-focus parallax adjustment with capped turrets that move in 0.25 MOA clicks. That setup is well suited to a rifle that may be zeroed carefully and then carried in the field, because the caps help protect settings from accidental movement. A 25.4 mm tube, 89.00 mm eye relief, fast-focus eyepiece, and nitrogen-filled waterproof, fogproof, shockproof construction round out a design that balances reach, usability, and field durability.

About Bushnell

Bushnell was founded in 1948 by Dave Bushnell, who began selling optical products from a photographic shop in Pasadena, California. The company grew into a major name in sports optics by focusing on practical products for hunting, target shooting, birding, and general outdoor observation. Its catalog spans riflescopes, binoculars, red dot sights, rangefinders, spotting scopes, and trail cameras, reflecting broad experience across both shooting and observation categories.

Within riflescopes, Bushnell is known for offering lines that cover everything from accessible hunting optics to more specialized tactical models such as Elite Tactical, while other families like Legend, Prime, and AR Optics serve different users and budgets. Bushnell has also developed proprietary features such as EXO Barrier, a lens coating designed to repel water, oil, dust, and debris. That combination of long market presence, wide product depth, and category-specific design has made Bushnell a well-established manufacturer in sporting optics.
