[QUOTE="LDHunter, post: 1532985, member: 105"] I am incensed by the Burris Eliminator III and I am having a hard time finding any discussions here that aren't at least a year old regarding them. Even the review done by Roger Seale is over 5 years old. I work a lot of hours and simply don't have time for all the work and effort involved in ballistics and scope adjustments and frankly to me it's frustrating. As I read all the specs and the good review done on it here I become more and more interested. Here in Florida as far I imagine it is totally legal to use on all non-game animals because we can use night vision and thermal at night for all non-game animals. I'll try to find out of they're legal on game animals but I can't imagine why not. They're for sale all over the place and reviews are mostly very good but the authority on long range hunting is usually found right here on LR Hunting and I highly value the opinions of most of the hunters here. So that we don't end up with a lot of quoting the obvious... I'm aware that it's BUTT UGLY and heavy as a boat anchor. Well.... I guess 26 oz isn't quite a boat anchor. :) Yes and it's battery operated and batteries do fail but what's to stop the hunter from replacing the cheap battery (CR123) just before an important hunt and keeping a couple of spares with him or her? The parallax adjustment is at the objective lens and I hate that but I don't know where else they could have put it. One more thing... Did I mention that it's BUTT UGLY? ;) So the model I'm interested in is the Eliminator III 4-16x50 with the remote although I have NO idea what the remote does. It is possible that it's been quietly upgraded since the original models were released but maybe not. There are features mentioned in the link below that nobody mentioned in the older reviews or threads.
