[QUOTE="Buttermilk, post: 795646, member: 5262"] The Burris 2x-7x scope has got to be one of the best scopes on the market. For medium range setups and closer, it would be hard to beat. I have owned a few of them in the past. I plan to put one on one of my XP-100 7BR pistols soon (currently has a Burris 3x-12x). The 2x-7x with Ballistic Plex is a good match for the 7BR. The 3x-12x Ballistic Plex reticle doesn't match up nearly as good. I have two 3x-12x Burris scopes, one is the older version, and one is a newer version made in the Philipines. When I compared the two side by side after dark, I was surprised to see the newer Philipines made version was much clearer and brighter. Enough so that I could make out a license plate with it while my older model only let me get half the plate. Even daylight viewing shows the Philipines model having better optical quality. Certainly surprised me. The newer model has a different colored coating on the ocular lens. The Philipines model has a rosé color tint to the ocular lens while my older model has a green colored tint. Regards, Rog [/QUOTE]
