I can deal with that reticle. I am ok with the eye relief too.. must be my short neck.

I've had good luck with Burris scopes. Great glass & very dependable.

I'll admit, these scopes look like winners! Finally someone out there is listening. I like the reticle has hold marks for windage too. Probably pick one of the 30mm versions up when they come out.

Drew, SportOptics has them and says they'll ship within 4-6 weeks. Pretty tempting...

Not sure why they have both a 1" and 30mm version. haven't seen the elevation travel specs on either model yet.

Found the specs for elevation...

3-9x30mm = 82moa
4.5-14x30mm = 66moa

3-9x1" = 52moa
4.5-14x1" = 42moa.

The 30mm tube looks like a no brainer!

Not sure where you got that info. The Burris catalog states the 3-9 is 12.2", and the 4.5-14 is 13".

Looks like these are in stock......

Wish I'd thought to try one before I pulled the trigger on something else. I'm always willing to give Burris a good try.

Thanks. Also found them at SWFA and Midway. Seriously thinking about giving a 30mm 4.5-14 a go...

I'm looking at the 30mm 3-9.

Be interested to see what you thought of one if you got it!

The eye relief spec gives me pause.
