[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 2718876, member: 23486"] I have two of the 5.5-30x XTR3s (US made). They sincerely punch above their weight. The glass is surprisingly good & they are built like tanks. If I had to say, there's literally only one thing I don't like about them. The magnification ring is stiff & the knurling is sharp. I threw MKM throw levers on and the problem was solved. I am told they loosen up, but no sense waiting. If I can drop $3k on two scopes, I can spend $50 on throw levers. Reviews state that the XTR3 has one of the best eye boxes & best field of view on the market. I can attest that they are both very good, especially at the price point. I have also been told that the 5.5-30 seems to be preferred to the 3.3-18 as the glass seems to be more forgiving. I heard this multiple times, so there must be some merit behind it. Here's a ~50 page thread on Sniper's Hide regarding the XTRIII. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/burris-xtr3.6913504/[/URL] You won't be disappointed, I really, really like mine. t [/QUOTE]
