I have heard good things on them and some bad things. Does not work well in bad weather, not sure which way I would go, very interesting mite work well for your situation....
It would be a lot of fun to play with. Like it or not, this is the wave of the future and the technology will only get better. And that's the problem. When better ones hit the market, the older ones won't be worth much.

My Leica is old and yet is it still as good as ever. It's just not as good as the new stuff. What I'm trying to say is if you buy it 'cause you like it, you don't loose.

Using Leica as a yardstick for anything is unfair. After over twenty years in the photo business, I can tell you the Leica brand has one of the most loyal customer bases of any product made. There will always be a demand for any used Leica product regardless of how "out of date" that product is. Kind of like Rolls Royce.
I still drive a 1998 truck. Newer ones hit the market but the old one still takes me to the elk and elk meet back home. The OP wanted to know about the Burris; everyone knows that a Leica will forever be a Leica.
I think if you buy the Eliminator-2.5, the one with scaling reticle (x-38 I think), I feel you lose only a little in performance and save a lot of money. I personally am not running out to trade in my Gen.2 even with its non scaling reticle.
