its worked on the hunting rifles I've seen them on and got to shoot. I trust the folks who have to hunt and shoot expensive animals to know what they are talking about.

Last video I saw it showed the guy taking an Elk from 890 yards. The video was edited to look like he took it down w/ one shot. Really he took to shots, then after the fact they took a video of him "dialing in" That was footage taken after the fact, when I'm sure it took more then just cranking the knob around. They only admited this after people callled them out in the video. It's on youtube if you care to look it up.

I saw... no big deal, it's just edited footage of an elk hunt... it really proves nothing either way.

JR Me too. I own several Leupolds, a Swaro, a Zeiss, Steiner, but the last several nice animals I have taken with a Burris! Go figure.

WOW! Each time I read one of these threads I get more confused. I guess it's just personal preference i.e. Ford...Chevy...Dodge.

We have 2 nikon's and they work very well and at the price it has been a great value. We got the BDC and like that option, but that was a few dollars more.
