Yup, I had the earlier version. Still miss that scope though!

I had the Gen 2 version and it was daylight visible except in bright sunlight. I finished a CA post LE tactical rifle training class and felt it was a bit to slow for under 50yards and opted for irons instead. I recently sold mine and am considering just going for the EOtech until I can find something else. I actually felt the 1-4X20 scope by Leupold was better built.

Got a question for XTR owners. Is the entire rear lense assembly, eye piece maybe, (the larger tube behind the 30mm tube, don't know what else to call it) turned to change magnification? I thought I read somewhere that the magnification ring was integral to the entire eye piece area and not independent?
I haven't seen many throw levers on pics and figured this might be why. I have nowhere nearby with XTR's so I cna't see for myself. |

I love your setup. Can you include a pic of the entire rifle? I am have been playing with a Millet DMS-1. I like the concept but obviously the DMS-1 does not deliver as well as your XTR. Yeah, but does the DMS-1 deliver at all? |

Can anyone do a picture of looking down the scope at 1x and 4x mag with the front sight post up? I have a fixed FSB and I was curious how a scope like this would look with such a setup.
I'd really appreciate it, thanks. |

I'd really appreciate it, thanks. I'm sorry I'm not able to take great pictures through scopes but on 1x you will see the fsb as if your eye is at the front of the scope. On 4x you won't see the fsb. As for throw levers, Cat Tail, a site sponsor, makes a throw lever for the XTR for $70. I'd pick one up for half that if they were available, but I don't think I need one. |

Burris keeps coming up w/great gear. I've been very pleased with 'tests' of their products that I've done with my son's rifles.
Each time, I buy a value priced optic from Burris instead of those 'high end' brands and I'm wondering why I've spent 2-3X for the same damn performance. In the 1-4 its not that much of a difference in price but I'll keep my $150 and buy the Burris over the similar Triji. |
