6.5 RPR on the way!! Been driving myself crazy over scopes. Top choices so far...

Burris XTR2 5-25x50 for $800 shipped new

Razor Gen 2 4.5-27x56 EBR 1C $1700ish

Trying to be cheap.

Thoughts?
 
I have a gen 2 razor and love it. Just sold a pst gen 2 and got a etr to try.

Shot with it today and really like it. I think it's a small step up from the pst imho. It has 30x top end and more elevation adjustment. The glass is really good for the $.
 
The Burris is a good scope, the Vortex is better (for 900 extra clams, it better be).
Between the two are offerings from Bushnell, Sightmark (pinnacle), Athlon and Primary Arms (platinum series).
You won't miss any targets because of the Burris. Very solid scope with Meh glass, but many folks have been running them on match rifles.
