Affordable Proven Rifle Scopes

I thought I would do a post on Burris SCOPES I have used that I feel are a good buy for the money. These scopes are rugged, bright and clear and hold their ZERO.

First one up is the classic 2X7X35 Fullfield II shotgun/muzzle loader scope with the following features:

  • Forever warranty
  • 1 inch scope
  • 12 ounce weight
  • 11.4 inch length
  • 3.8 - 3.1 eye relief
  • 95% light transmission
  • 1/2 MOA elevation and windage adjustments
  • Fully Multicoated lenses
  • 100% waterprrof (purged and nitrogen filled 24X) / sealed with special quad seals rather than traditional O rings
  • Lens covers supplied

$149.95 makes it a great buy from SWFA

Other choices in the Fullfield II lineup include several 3X9X40 scopes with similar features and a wide choice of reticles, along with 4.5X14X42 scopes and one 6.5-20X50 scope.

These scopes have a reputation for being rugged and priced right.

Burris of course has higher priced models including the Black Diamond series in 4X16X50 with 30mm tube for $698.95 and special scopes for SCOUT concept rifles. Also in the lineup are Burris Eliminator Laser range finding scopes if you have $1000 to part with.

For most of us especially for whitetail deer hunting, the Fullfield Lineup will satisfy your needs quite nicely.

I have a Fullfield II Iluminated ballistic plex 3X9X40 scope on my Ruger Mdl 77 .350 Rem mag which I really like. I NO longer see this listed by SWFA so perhaps this particular model has been discontinued.

I DO SEE this scope still being offered by "Optics Best Buy" for $279.00 - see LINK below:
