Never heard anything good about BSA scopes.

If you can spend a little more, the Primary Arms scopes get good reviews:

What are you looking to put it on?

Gonna use it for the range? Hunting?

I had a BSA on a Ruger M77 in .223. It held zero. Even got me a few dime sized groups at 200 yards off the bench. Not bad for the money.

I'd still go with the PA scope. I've been very happy with the red dots and mounts I've bought from them.

BSA on anything with actual recoil is a terrible idea. My .35 rem beat the crosshairs out of one n 5 shots,

I have a 6-24X40 BSA Contender scope on a Savage rifle in .223 caliber, has served me well for 12-13 years.

Do yourself a favor and avoid BSA.

The Bushnell is a much better option. Glass is better, build is better, and tracking will beat anything you find on the BSA scopes.
