    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR3!!!

    The box is just a little different and the labelling on the scope is just slightly different. I got a 3-15 g2B as my first XTR2, and it was a fantastic scope, SUPER good glass. The second one also a 3-15 g2B I got was at a retail store and it was obviously one of the first ones after they went...

    Rifle Scopes Which scope?

    Tough, repeatable.... The XTR2's fit that description. It works time and time again.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner P4Xi 4-16x56 Review

    Great review. I have one and it is a really tough elevation turret, really easy perillax and a perfect windage. I was on the fence about returning it, but after I was just sitting on the couch and worked it back and forth a bunch the elevation loosened up enough to decide to keep it. I put it on...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner P4Xi 4-16x56 - SCR Riflescope

    I pulled a rear scope cap off of a Burris XTR2 and it was super tight, but it went on. Not sure what size that is, but a smidge bigger would be good. Not sure on the front either. Sorry.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner P4Xi 4-16x56 - SCR Riflescope

    I got my P4Xi mounted a few days ago. The glass seems really nice, I am not too well versed in great glass, but I like it. The elevation turret is really tight... really tight. Not unusable, but it is very hard to turn compared to my Burris XTR2's. The magnification is perfect, the windage is...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner P4Xi 4-16x56 - SCR Riflescope

    I just ordered one for me and one for my Brother-in-law. I hope they live up to the billing. I spoke with Neal and he was very helpful.

    Rifle Scopes Long range hunting scope question/ rant

    I prefer my Burris Veracity over my Zeiss v4. They are similar in a lot of ways, but I like that the Burris is a FFP and a BDC... it works well together. I guess put me in the group that prefers a FFP for hunting and target.

    Rifle Scopes Long range hunting scope question/ rant

    I am replacing my Zeiss V4 4-16 with a Burris Veracity 4-20. I have a capped windage and I bought the exposed MAD knob elevation knob. I went with the BDC FFP reticle because I am going to dial everything over 400 yards and up to 400 a BDC is faster. The reticle is absolutely fantastic. When...

    Rifle Scopes Burris xtr2 for hunting

    I have 3-15 XTR2 s on 2 of my best hunting rifles. I really love it! The 4-20 is a lot physically larger.

    Rifle Scopes VX6, or what else?

    Zeiss V4 is under $1000 and they have a little variety of reticles. I believe it is 90% light transmission. Not sure how that stacks up to the competition. Personally I like my 3-15x50 Burris XTR2 G2B over my Zeiss V4 4-16x44 for hunting.

    Rifle Scopes Optic for heavy woods/open fields

    cameralandny.com and midwayusa.com have an Athalon Midas BTR 2.5-15x50 on sale for pretty cheap. I just got mine yesterday and it is a pretty nice scope for the money and the field of view is excellent.

    Rifle Scopes Can't decide between Athlon Talos BTR 4-14 APLR2 or Vortex Diomondback Tactical 4-16 with EBR-2C

    I have no experience with the vortex, but i have the talos btr and the argos btr. I really liked them both. Right now the talos is in the box waiting for the next gun, i took it off in favor of a zeiss v4. I love the reticle, and only dialed out to 540 yards once and 400 a few times, so it...

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR II anyone?

    I have a couple of the 3-15 g2b that are hunting rifle scopes and i just love them. If they were lighter, i would take off my zeiss v4 4-16 and put another one on my lightweight kimber rifle. I also have a 4-20 SCR and 5-25 SCR on target rifles. I really like them a lot, two of them have...

    Rifle Scopes Have a kimber Montana looking for a good scope around 1200

    I have a Zeiss V4 4-16 and I think it has around 80 MOA of travel. I have not yet checked how well it tracks since it is somewhat new to me, but the glass is pretty good and it is a SFP so you should feel comfortable with the reticle. I have it on my Kimber Classic Select 280 AI and it seems to...

    Rifle Scopes Mechanical function of Burris XTR2

    The tracking always seems to be perfect regardless of where the information is coming from. I have 4 XTR2's and one came in a different box than the rest. I got it from a dealer in Montana and it is the only one that doesn't have really good glass. I am guessing it is older. It isn't bad enough...

    Rifle Scopes Low budget highend hunting scopes

    I have a Athalon Talos BTR, it is a FFP 4-14 with a aplr 2 reticle that I just love. It is $300 everywhere and I have had it on my 280AI and it fits it nicely. So far I only have about 30-40 rounds through the gun with this scope on there. If it proves to be reliable, I would think it is about...

    Rifle Scopes scrambling for a scope

    Look at it this way, at least you will have an extra set of good scope rings if Weatherby does make it right for you. I have a couple sets of those rings, one 34mm set is on a 300 WSM and I have at least 100 rounds through it on that rifle and it is holding strong.

    Rifle Scopes Burris Veracity, does anyone have one?

    Thanks, it seems like the reviews are pretty good, when people do have anything to say about them. The discount with experticity makes me want to give the SCR MOA 4-20 a shot.

    Rifle Scopes Burris Veracity, does anyone have one?

    I am looking for input on the Burris Veracity. It seems like everyone has an XTR2 (I have 3), but I am looking for a more hunting oriented scope. Anyone have any input on how good or bad it is? I like the options that I see on the website, the zero stop is a BIG plus, the reticle looks nice...
