Bushnell also made the trophy 1.75-4x32. If you can find one, a step up on the banner for $150. I have one on my turkey gun. Clearer glass compared to the banner I had on a rimfire which I found hazy.

Has too much time on their hands
I have a few including the one you're looking at for your shotgun. No problems with any of them. A few of my friends and family use them too.
The most noticeable difference between the Banner and higher end scopes to me was they are a bit "jumpy" when getting them zeroed. Meaning the click adjustments work a little more crudely than on expensive scopes. Otherwise, they're an good value scope.

I had this scope (3-9x40 I believe) come on a Savage Axis 2 in 30-06. It wasn't tightened/installed correctly from the factory and made for an interesting trip to the range...wondered why shot #3 I wasn't even hitting paper. Scope moved around and after 3 shots the reticle was all messed up. Glass cracked inside.
Brought it to Bushnell HQ in North York and they replaced it no questions asked, but sold the replacement so I can't comment on actual field use. I do remember it being very clear on those first few shots though!
Cheers

Over the years, I’ve owned 3 Bushnell scopes and had trouble with each of them e.g. loss of nitrogen, internal lenses coming loose, crosshairs breaking. I’ll never buy another one thank you very much.

I have a Banner 1.5 x 4.5 on my Mossberg 535 for over a dozen years.
I shot lots of 3.5" heavy loads to pattern different loads and different chokes and shoot a bunch of Turkeys.
No problems so far. Great scope.

Do you use the same scope for slugs as well?

Well the scope came in and I am very pleased with it cosindering the price! It looks very well made. Will be putting some loads through it tomorrow hopefully. 20210510_155505.jpg
