    Burris Customer Services at its worst, please help/advise. (UPDATE: 09DEC23)

    Quote from bigjake83: "So it's good to know that Burris is actually aware of their shortcomings and product discrepancies that need to be addressed, and that this entire 8 page public Spotlight is solely the result of Sean's piss poor customer service and total lack of professionalism". I agree...

    Burris Customer Services at its worst, please help/advise. (UPDATE: 09DEC23)

    Talked to Sean@ Burris yesterday. When I explained what was going on with the elevation turret being sent back to me maxed out his comment was "I've never seen one sent back that way". I also asked if it was common to send the diaper back turned fully clockwise instead of centered he said all he...

    Burris Customer Services at its worst, please help/advise. (UPDATE: 09DEC23)

    When I received my XTRII the front lens cap ws broken. The Diaopter was turned fully clockwise and the Elevation turret was at maximum elevation. I called Burris and asked them how do I adjust for zero with the turret elevation maxed out. I was told to count the number of clicks until the turret...

    Which One Should I Buy, SIG 516 Or Noveske N4

    Not really, he always shot crappy Wolf or surplus mil spec ammo. He was to cheap after spending big bucks on either rifle to shoot quality ammo or a decent scope.

    Which One Should I Buy, SIG 516 Or Noveske N4

    A friend is offering to sell me both of the above. Noveske has a Chrome bore both have Geissele SSA-2 trigger. Price is about the same both are in excellent condition. The Noveske is $150 more. So which one should I buy?

    new to AR -15 reloading

    I'd start with RCBS small base 223 dies. I'd stay away from Lee dies.

    Burris Customer Services at its worst, please help/advise. (UPDATE: 09DEC23)

    I had almost the same experience in the last 2 weeks with my XTR II. For whatever reason my AR which before had consistently shot 5 shot ~ 1moa 100 groups started shooting grapefruit sized 100 yards groups.Thinking it might be me having a bad day I had my buddy shoot my AR, same results. Went to...

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR2 - is it me or is it the glass?

    I have a XTR II that suddenly went tits up. I had it on my DPMS SASS which use to shoot consistent 1 moa 5 shot 100 yards groups. Then last Thursday took it out to the range and it was shooting watermelon size groups at 100 yards. It's always been in an ADM mount. Checked all the screws and all...

    Understanding the current Accuracy International market

    I bought this AIAW with a Bartlien barrel from Mile High around 2000. I thought a while back I'd sell my AIAW and to upgrade to an AIMC. But realized it wouldn't shoot any better than my AW so I never upgraded. Best decision I ever made.The target is 6 5 shot 100 yard groups. I wouldn't sell it...

    Need help with Larue PredatAR 308 Problems surpressed and Trigger question

    I also have a TOBR with XTRAXN chamber that I bought used several years ago. Not sure when it was produced. Only clue it has an AR Gold trigger. While I haven't be able to shoot half inch groups it usually shoots 5 shot 100 yard groups just under 1 moa using 168 SMK's. I' never had a problem...

    Rifle Scopes NXS reticle options

    My favorite NXS reticle is the MOAR but if I had to do it over again I'd get the MOAR-T with the thicker reticle lines.

    Acceptable scopes for 1k+

    I bought the Burris XTRII 5-25X50 scope from EuroOptis and couldn't be happier. Great price and really nice scope. I agree with getting it over the Strike Eagle.
