Bushnell Adds Two Models To The Legend Ultra·HD Binocular Line

Bushnell Outdoor Products

Overland Park, KS — -(Ammoland.com)- The Legend Ultra·HD binoculars have quickly become a favorite of serious outdoorsmen since their introduction in 2009. The combination of high quality optics and premium ED Prime Glass with the new Ultra Wide Band Custom Coating lens technology provides the ultimate in high definition performance.

Two new mid-size roof prism models have been introduced for 2010 — the Legend Ultra·HD 8x36mm and 10x36mm. Their anti-reflective Ultra Wide Custom Coating delivers the best available light not only during the peak of the day, but also at dusk and dawn when optics matter most. Premium ED (Extra Low Dispersion) glass delivers optimal color performance and edge-to-edge sharpness.

Compared to similarly price optics, Legend Ultra·HD binoculars deliver a wider field of view and are also more comfortable to use. Longer eye relief means less eye strain. The new Legend Ultra·HD binoculars are built on a lightweight, durable magnesium chassis. As a bonus they come with a deluxe binocular harness with pre-attached neckstrap lugs that distributes the weight of the binoculars more evenly across your back.

Bushnell Legend Ultra Binocular

The new mid-size Legend Ultra·HD binoculars provide all weather performance with their 100 percent waterproof construction and new RainGuard® HD high-density permanent coating, which scatters less light by minimizing or eliminating moisture on the lens surface.

The 8×36 version comes in RealTree AP camouflage and the 10×36 model in black. Both come complete with a premium carrying case, neck strap and custom binocular harness. Suggested retail prices are: 8×36 – $249.99 and 10×36 – $249.99. They are available at Bushnell dealers nationwide.

Bushnell Granted Motion for Preliminary Injunction Against Brunton, Ion and Lanshou

Bushnell Outdoor Products

Overland Park, Kan. - -(Ammoland.com)- Bushnell announces that effective December 30, 2009, the U.S. District Court of Kansas has granted the request from Bushnell to preliminarily enjoin Brunton and Lanshuo from selling certain laser rangefinders. Bushnell previously filed suit against these parties for patent infringement, and the District Court has found they likely infringe. Brunton and Lanshuo are now prohibited from importing and selling the laser rangefinders identified in the Court’s Order effective immediately.

Brunton attempted to block this order, which was to take effect on November 25, 2009, by filing a motion to stay the injunction pending appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Their motion was denied today making the injunction immediately effective.

Bushnell Outdoor Products is the worldwide manufacturing leader of sports optics, premium eyewear, and outdoor accessories for over 60 years. Since 1995 Bushnell has been developing, innovating, revolutionizing, and providing patented laser rangefinder technology to the outdoorsmen, golfer and law enforcement personnel.

“We are pleased the motion was granted for the preliminary injunction and that the products that infringed on our technology will be taken out of the marketplace,” said Phil Gyori, Executive Vice President of Marketing at Bushnell. “Bushnell and its development partner, Laser Technology, have invested an enormous amount of time and resources into developing our patented technology and we will continue to vigorously enforce our rights against all infringers.”
