I had a Burris or two when they first came out didn't care for them then....I sure wouldn't buy one now.


Burris started making scopes in 1971, 50 years ago. Please explain how this relates to Burris scopes now, since you have zip experience with them since then.

Sporting good stores here didn't sell them till the late 1970s they looked good and cost more than a Leupold so I figured they had to be something special....the eye relief was too critical on them to suit me.

About 10 years ago I got a later model Burris on a gun I bought I couldn't sell it fast enough....I put a 10 year old Leupold Varx II 3x9/AO compact on the gun and it's still on there.

I got burnt on a Burris spotting scope years back after I got it I notiiced made in China on it....I still have it it's okay for looking at bullets holes at 100 yards if you don't look very long.
