Rifle Scopes Burris Eliminator 6

Good timing for your question. I actually got to play with one this past Saturday. I had a buddy who was in line on one who had called me up to let me know he had it.

I'm amazed at how easy-mode it is, Point, click, and shoot. We had a 4" bowling pin at 300 and 400 yards, a 12" square at 700 and a 16" square at 800. I hit every shot with his 6.5 PRC. The new Japanese glass is nice. Very XTRIII'ish.

He had the ballistics downloaded already, so I'm not sure how that works other than him saying it wasn't difficult. But the on board ballistics worked perfectly. Just laser the target, and use the provided holdover, break the trigger. If they weren't illegal for big game in Idaho I guarantee you I would own one (only legal for varmints here). No more LRF needed, Super fast from target acquisition to shot.
 
Might want to jump over to these threads to get a lead up on the history and limitations that have been addressed thus far on the Eliminator series:


There are a number of us who are following the outcome on performance on the latest offering in the Eliminator series with the biggest question being the maximum solution range that the scope is capable of calculating. @rustyinbend is probably the most versed in the assessment and is most likely doing testing as of this writing and will most likely post soon based on his previous assessments in the above thread. It is worth a read as he really goes into what people are looking for in a scope of this type that does not break the bank like the still unavailable Vortex XM-157 (https://www.guntalk.com/post/vortex-xm157-selected-by-army and https://bulletin.accurateshooter.co...-20-million-contract-for-xm157-ngsw-fc-optic/).

Others like @koshkin has highlighted the Element HYPR-7 (https://element-optics.com/product/hypr-7/), the Sig BDX (https://www.sigsauer.com/electro-optics/bdx.html), the Burris Veracity (https://www.burrisoptics.com/riflescopes/veracity-ph), the Steiner M7xi (https://www.steiner-optics.com/riflescopes/m7xi-ifs-4-28x56) along with the Swarovski dS 5-25x52 GEN II (https://www.swarovskioptik.com/us/en/hunting/products/rifle-scopes/ds/ds-5-25x52/ds-gen-ii-5-25x52-p).
