    Burris six x Discontinued

    I received an email from Burris stating that the six x is discontiued. I have one and quite like the scope, and the stormcoat. I had inquired about any others in their line with stromcoat for my son. Anyone heard anything about this. It seams a bit odd, as they have been touting this scope quite...

    Burris six x, do you have one

    I have been going back and forth on a scope for a long time now. Can't realy wrap my head around spending 2K on the swaro 2-12. Keep going back to the Burris, because it's 1/2 the price. I know I will never go wrong with great optics, but I have to consider cost. I would like to hear from anyone...

    Burris six scope owner opinions

    Thanks again for your info and comments. I won't buy a leupold now, unless it's darn inexpensive, don't realy want to spend the money for a swarovski, and am still a bit concerned about burris. maybe I might just give up on the idea of the 6x, and get another monarch in a 3-12.

    Burris six scope owner opinions

    Thanks for the info thechamp. I know leupold has good service, but with some reading and price comparisons, I also think that for the most part they are over priced for their quality, which tells me that they have been very good at brand marketing. I just want to get it right without spending...

    Burris six scope owner opinions

    Can anyone give a comment on Burris service as well. I have read in the past in some of the "rate this product" sections when searching the dealers for a good price, that Burris isn't quite there yet with initial quality control, such as dust inside etc, and slightly less than impresive service...

    300 RUM enough gun for elk @ 600 yards?

    I was going to buy a 300 rum as well, but with some advise from friends and some reading on a site called supiorbalistics.com, I decided to go with a 300wsm. 1st Any 300 mag will take elk quite well at 600 yds and more, can the shooter? I know I will need some practice before I risk any animal...

    300 rum basic loading question

    I think I will go with a 300 wsm, a little less zip but a little less kick as well. I also did some reading, and think it's a very accurate caliber. Out to 600yds max I think it will take care of anything I will shoot, once I am capable of shooting that far. I will end up with a couple of loads...

    Burris six scope owner opinions

    For the money I can't see anything else right now in a 2x12-40 to 44. The retail is over $1000, and on now for just over $600. Normaly I would wonder about that, but I know alot of people don't mind paying for the name when it comes to scopes.

    Burris six scope owner opinions

    I would like to be overly impressed in a 2x12 to 2.5x15 without spending 2k. I even looked at the Bushnell 2.5x16 but when I sent them an email to ask a question about their standard ballistics set up, they didn't seem to know or care what I was talking about. They must have some sort of...

    Burris six scope owner opinions

    Thanks for the comment. I have a buddy who says much the same, and when I showed him that I can buy the 2x12 six for just over $600 he said I would have to spend at least 3 times as much to beat it. By looking around I am starting to think he may be right. I am going to put it on a new hunting...

    Burris six scope owner opinions

    I am looking for a 2-12x40 scope and see burris has one at a resonable price. For those that don't know Leupold is also bringing one out. I have a set of the burris signature select binos and when compared to a friend's swavorskis' the difference is not what I expected for the huge price...
