Anyone running this burris scope??
« on: November 06, 2014, 04:22:57 PM »
Took a look at it today and thought it was pretty nice.  Anyone running it on an AR platform?  What do you think?

I looked at these and decided it was redundant to have a red dot and 1x low end on the scope.  I think a red dot on top of something with a 2x-3x low end would be more useful.   Burris sells rings where the top half has a small section of rail, allowing you to put a red dot on top of any scope (just like the PEPR pictured).   I have a set that I would make you a deal on.  Extra tall for use on an AR without needing a riser.  1" tube.

I think the LRS scopes are 30mm.  At least the 3.5-10 Burris on my coyote hunting AR is...and it is an LRS scope.  It has fallen over onto rocks, and I even fell down a hillside with it, and it never lost zero.  A few days ago I was at the range, and took it out to shoot to make sure the scope was still on.  At the bench, it was rocking around on a 30 round magazine, and at 100 yards I was off 1 1/2 inches.  I took one shot, and decided that was close enough for coyote shooting!  :tup:
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

I went with the MTAC 1x4 and no separate red dot.  For me, the scope was fine without an extra site - even up close.  Very happy with the BDC reticle as well.  I shot a coyote at 500 yards with my 16" AR earlier this fall.  Just picked the right dot and down he went.  The 2+ MOA center dot is not for precision shooting, but works well for the intended purpose.
