Bio on Bushnell: Dave Bushnell got into the scope business in 1948, with 400 Japanese binoculars he thought he could sell in the U.S. Alas, many orders were canceled when a shipping strike held up delivery. With his last $200, Dave bought a small ad in Sports Afield—and sold 54 binoculars for $648. It proved to be the boost he needed. His first year as an optics importer brought in almost $150,000. By 1960, more than 18,000 dealers worldwide carried Bushnell products. Three years later he introduced a Scopemaster riflescope line: 2.5X, 4X and 6X models with internal adjustments and coated optics. Renamed ScopeChief, the series improved to emerge as ScopeChief II in 1965. A forward prism enabled the reticle to remain fixed in the second focal plane. A “Command Post” gave you the choice of crosswire or post.
