    Rifle Scopes Does anything rival the Burris XTR3 for the money? If so, what ?

    You’ll get CA somewhere on none Alpha glass. Wouldn’t be a concern. CA is annoying but it can be managed.

    DMR3 is an upgrade from the DMR2 by a good bit in the image department. However I’d say near all optics have improved from where their previous models were 5+ years ago. Image wise … I’ve yet to look through something better than my old PMII 12-50 … that glass was just stupid (no experience...

    FOR THE RECORD … I want Steiner and Burris to succeed. I want to get back into a M-Series scope with the MSR2 reticle.

    DMR2 I can confirm does have CA … on par with optics in its price range.

    Steiner used to be my go to brand for several years so needless to say. I hated seeing the downfall of quality over the years from my purchases … :(

    Cool. Like I said. I’ve had about $6000 worth of Steiner products with QC issues since 2019 … so not just a sample size of one but rather several product lines from Steiner … all had QC problems out of the box … which tells me people there are slipping with QC and they are letting things go...

    What about my issues? Having 4 Steiner products with QC issues from their P4XI to M-Series line … over $6000 in product investment? I don’t think it’s a one and done problem. I’ve had issues since 2019 … I gave up after my Steiner laser was also failed out of the box in 2022 … that’s just the...

    I'll give the eyebox to the DMR3 over the XRS3 ... the XRS3 gets a bit tight (which is expected) above 30X ... while the DMR3 not so much even at its max 21x. One really nice thing is both remain constant with the eye relief so you aren't fighting that. If you keep the XRS3 below 28X ... you...

    Mostly significantly dirty internals and terrible wrench marks from assembly ... some have also received back to back to back to back faulty warranty replacements.

    Eotech Vudu X 2-12

    At that weight spec ... I'd rather just get a Razor LHT 3-15x42 MRAD ... 19 oz naked ... with LW mount its below 26 oz with excellent optics ...heck you could afford to install piggy back red dot and probably still beat 33 oz and have 1-15x capability ...

    Eotech Vudu X 2-12

    Just by the turret design language and anodizing ... it appears to be Chinese made ...

    Eotech Vudu X 2-12

    33 oz 2-12 ... might as well setup up and get a better optic with that weight requirement ... this is something Leupold needs to re-examine and re-release their 3.5-10 Mk4 optics to the public with an updated reticle ... it was light and very usable ...

    lol … ok … You know to quoted me stating that the DMR3 is better than a XRS3 … both are Bushnell products … and to me the DMR3 outperforms the XRS3 for me. Anyways … I’ve owned a lot of high end optics … kind of know what my eyes see. I can only report what I see and experience. Mileage will...

    Rifle Scopes Does anything rival the Burris XTR3 for the money? If so, what ?

    I know its not about using it like a red dot ... but if its dark enough to use illumination ... I am backing down the magnification ... at that point ... I might just transition into a piggy back dot ... (my application is an AR10 not a bolt gun nor running matches) ... I do believe a center...

    I'd like a center dot illumination ... but full reticle illumination is a no go for me ... I'll use a piggy back red dot ... but at the same time ... I wouldn't be hunting with 30+ oz tactical optic/mount combo anyway ...

    Had the DMR3 next to my XRS3 … direct comparo. Same day. Yes. The DMR3 has better glass … take it for what it’s worth.

    I've had both the XRS3 and the DMR3 at the same time ... I do prefer the DMR3 compared to the XRS3 ... optically ... the DMR3 is much sharper with more color than the XRS3 ... I have the DMR3 in the G4P reticle and I had the XRS3 in the EQL ... I also feel the DMR3 is much more comfy sitting...
