My 18 year old Bushnell 1.5-4.5 x 20 Shotgun Scope on My 1895 .444 Marlin, has almost died.
Can't focus anything much after 1.5X
Also can't group under 6" @50 yds
I recon it's stuffed.

I have found this replacemant
Leupold VX-HOG 1-4x20mm Riflescope....USD$215-USD$230
Can this handle the recoil ?

Any comments would be greatly appreciated
ps I have trouble with red dot, and holographic sights

Im pretty sure it could handle the recoil,someone will chime in on this that has more experience with the scope. Leupold has a lifetime warranty

I submitted your question to Leupold as I was curious also. We'll see what their marketing people say. Although, I am sure we can all guess.

Fred,

All Leupold scopes will easily handle the recoil of a .444 magnum, the VX-Hog is no exception. Use with confidence.
