Anybody own a Burris xtr? How good are they? Do they make a good long range hunting optic?
Thanks boys. I like mine too but other guys at the range always question my choice of scopes
NO reason you say? Who are you to decide what my reasons should be?once someone has bought into the $1800 and up optic plan, it's damm near impossible to get them to admit they spent a ton of money for no reason.
If you want to shoot long range, and spin turrets to get there, then you do need the ruggedness of a NF/USO/S&B/Hensoldt. Attend a long range match, or a Hogan's Alley type match where you face all sorts of obstacles, and you need the ruggedness of NF/USO/S&B/Hensoldt.I'm not saying the night force/us optic/S&B, etc. arn't good, I'm just saying that if I'm not hunting somthing that shoot's back, I don't need the ruggedness of those optics.

Gotta love it when someone takes it upon themselves to decide whether my choices pass general muster.
Run a 20 MOA box with your wonder scope and see what you get. You're so entrenched in your "you don't need that if someone isn't shooting back" mantra, you refuse to entertain the truth: A better scope than yours gives that shooter an advantage over you regardless of the course of fire.sorry, I must have touched a nerve there. If you've convinced yourself you need something, by all means get it. I DO shoot long range, frequnetly, and still don't need the $2000.00 scope, BECAUSE, the gongs dont shoot back .
