Rifle Scopes Burris Service Department

[MJPLEO]

I had placed my Burris XTR 6-24x50 up for sale last week. Didn't get a hit or even a nibble, probably because it's a 1" elevation and 1/2" windage adjustable. Perfect glass, very light ring marks and even at $525.00 shipped, nada...nothing.

I called Burris Customer Service for shits/giggles and spoke to a service tech named Martin. He was cool and took the time to answer my questions. $40.00 and cost of shipping one way is all it's going to cost to have them switched to 1/4" elevation and 1/4" windage. Needless to say, I pulled that one immediately.

Re: Burris Service Department

nice that they will work with the customers easily. so now are you going to keep it or is the swap to sell it?

Good to know they will put 1/4 elevation and 1/4 windage on if you want. I have a Burris 4.5-14x42 TAC30 that has 1/4's and went with it because the XTR 6-24x50 didn't show 1/4's in their literature. Never crossed my mind to ask and I've spoken to Martin a few times. Assume you have the Burris XTR rings?

Yes, I'm going to keep it now. It's like new save for a couple light ring marks. I thought the resale or trade value was a bit better but I guess not. I have Burris XTR rings but this one will sit in a GG&G mount.

I think I will get in contact w/ them and see about getting mine changeg. I really like the scope, just not the 1" & 1/2" adjustments.

I have three myself, 2 XTR's and one of the new model Sixx scopes in 2-12x40. I picked up the Sixx off of a guy who had won it and had no use for it (Brand new in the box, a steal to say the least). I was hoping I could get target turrets for it but they're not available for that model yet.

I just can't quite pull the trigger on a NF or US Optics yet, so these will have to do along with my Bushnell 6500. Not that I don't want a scope from either though....
