I really would like to go to the range and shoot my 458 Lott. However the only scope I have around is a Burris Fullfield 2 do you think the scope is up to it or should I wait to buy another thank you

I've had 2 of them, never had any issues. The reputation I keep hearing is that they are one of the tougher scopes made.


Most people don't really want the truth.

They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

I've had a fullfield II on a 300 RUM for 350-400 rounds. It's never so much as shifted zero.


Oh, and believe it or not, deer bite. Fairly hard.

I have had one that survived a 35 Whelen for a lot of rounds and then the same scope lived on top of a 358 Norma Mag. Not nearly at the level of a 458 Lott but still has a good amount of recoil.

Very tough scope.

I just ordered a Fullfield 2x7 for your whoops I mean my new BLR 358. I ran a Fullfield 3x9 on a lightweight 35 Whelen for about 350 rounds with zero issues. I think they are the best value in scopes right now.
