200% agree. For long range, I shoot more accurately, faster and with more enjoyment with a send it level. I have multi-focal glasses so have trouble focusing on a bubble with both eyes open while staying on the target. With the a Send-it, as DBD says the lights make leveling almost...

You did well. The Hide comes through again.

IMO there is never "too much scope" in terms of optical quality, turrets and controls, but budget and other constraints are important. If you buy a scope that is "only good enough" to shoot 300 or 400 yards in good conditions, if you keep shooting you are likely to find out later that the scope...

As others have said, IMO the Razor Gen 3 6-36x56 is a no-brainer for the best value to shoot this distance. As another response indicated, there is a custom black version available at EO for about $2.5K. The only drawback with this scope is weight, but it is not that much heavier than the...

I NEEEED this!

Nice review, thanks.

Now there's a spec! For this scope I'm just hoping to get to 1,200 accurately with a 6.5CM and 1,400 for a 7PRC. That's enough for most and we will see if this one can do it. However, the time is coming where there will be an integrated single scope/LRF/solver/aiming solution that will do...

First, have you seen this? https://opticsthoughts.com/?page_id=623 My suggestions: If you had a higher weight budget, you can find the Razor Gen 3 6-36x56 on sale for mid-$2K range and that is by far the best quality for the price in this magnification range. I have two and it compares well...

Thanks. I saw your review, very helpful. I will try to shoot well past 1,000 yards and report back. For what it's worth, I had no problem getting a firing solution with the 6.5CM at 960 yards and I ranged the 1,100 yard target and got a solution. If the previous versions stopped providing...

Agree that hunting out to 700/800 yards is generally what the scope is designed for and the results proved out this application. I would like to determine if the ballistic solution can be fine tuned to do accurately go beyond 1,000 yards with good rifle/cartridge combinations. The rifle and...

Yes, that’s also my understanding based on the scuttlebutt – good Japanese glass in the XTR line for sure and likely in the Eliminator 6 too. I have two Burris XTR IIIi 3.3-18x50 SCR2 reticle scopes. The optical quality is very good for the price, the combination of FOV and depth of field is...

I agree, FFP with a good mil tree reticle would be much better (or MOA tree for those who speak MOA). My understanding is that it is much more difficult to produce an accurate FFP reticle scope that has an aiming solution projected onto the reticle as compared to an SFP. Hopefully this...

I can conditionally recommend the Eliminator 6, pending the additional work I need to do described in the conclusions, but don’t know about the earlier Eliminator versions. The optics were not as good for the earlier versions according to the reviews. I don’t think the E6 has been on sale yet...

All of the observations, conclusions and opinions that follow are strictly my own views. There will be others who see things differently or don’t like the test procedures, I can only do my best. I hope this review helps some Hide members who are wondering about the Burris Eliminator 6, or...

Yes, that's the idea and your comments are helpful, thanks. At 200 yards with a red dot I make more hits than misses on a small target from an improvised position when there is plenty of time per shot. But when I practice with position movement and faster shots I am considerably better with...

Ok guys. Not sure what turns your crank, but I've had enough of it for now. Take care.

No measurement is perfect. An imperfect measurement can be referred to as an estimate. An estimate of a performance parameter is far better than knowing nothing about the performance parameter. The more resolution one attempts to characterize in a performance parameter test, such as the...

Right, but it does if you need to shoot unmagnified at 150-200 yards which is not at all an unimportant circumstance. We've been practicing at that distance and that is why I considered going to a holo sight, thought it would have less parallax. Instead I learned that regardless of holo or...

Great - thanks! Haven't been able to attend lately due to family/entertaining in the evening but will make a point for the next one if there is a little advance notice.

My $0.02. If your application works with the reduced FOV and higher magnification, the Vortex Razor HD LHT 4.5-22x50 FFP with mil tree reticle is a little better than the XTR III 3.3-18x50 SCR-2 IMO for a similar price (when both are on sale). I have both scopes and really like them both for...
