New Burris tactical scopes

I don't think these are available here yet, but I thought I'd post for you guys thoughts on the new Burris XTRII scopes.

Better pictures on the website link.

Anyway, question is I've used a couple of low end Burris earlier which I didn't think were much good, but these look a step up.

I don't know if you can buy them separately now or if you will in the future, but I really thought that 45° dot scope attachment is cool.

Just sharing for fun anyways, what do you guys think?

You can buy clamp on picatinny rails that you could rotate to whatever angle is comfortable, and you could stick any optics you like on it.

Burris are making these with Steiner so quality should be good.

Price will be well above your average Burris scope though I'm sure.

You might want to check the available reticles on these before you get too excited.

All very, very busy tactical holdover reticles. Way too many lines for me...

More than you'll want for hunting or target shooting IMO.

Price list on them here - http://www.burrisoptics.com/pricelist_scope.html

$1,200 - $1,800 depending on the model.

You'd want some top glass for that much scratch.
