    So flicked the Bushnell up on Trademe has I already have heaps of scopes and it was pulled by trademe as a fake a few days later.
    I contacted the seller and found the package deal was supplied by a well-known Gun store.
    I ended up getting what the scope was worth from the gun store and the gun store had to send all the fakes to the NZ Bushnell distributor after they sent him a warning letter.

    A bit of extra googling on my part would have identified it as fake.
    Buyer beware.
    Hang on, so a gun store was selling fake scopes on their package deals? Which store? Thats absolutely shocking
