How much longer, it is getting hard to wait.

15 June I sent Burris customer service an email asking  for an ETA.  They said they have started shipping all their XTR scopes except the illum reticle ones. 
Gotta new FNH-PBR that needs topped with a new scope!

(competitor)s web site they moved the "expected in stock date" from the end of June to the end of July.  Saw that, canceled my order and bought a XOTIC.  Will be in my hands and atop my rifle by Monday.

Well I dont know who has them but someone has them in stock. I just did a color match refinish on one (3x12x50 XTR). It wasnt on a rifle but the fit / finish was good. The optical clarity was seemed good. It had very positive clicks when the windage and elevation knobs were moved. I didnt have any of my scopes  around to compare it with. I dont have any idea how well it would track or hold up, but from what I saw Burris has come a long way since the last one I had.

We are starting to get a few in here and there. They come in and go right back out to our back orders. If you want one you would get it faster if you were on the waiting list.

Email from Burris...We have been producing the 10x XTR for a number of months and continue to ship them on a near daily basis and I’m sure SWFA has received a number of them over the months. As a matter of fact if any dealer on the scope on order it would ship in a couple of days because backorders are almost nonexistent

I really wanted to look at it first before I purchased the 10X and I dont live far from SWFA.. I tried to get on the waiting list but the lady who answered the phone said I couldnt do that. I talked to the sales rep at Burris 2 or 3 weeks ago and they said SWFA only had ordered 1 or 2 and they were shipped. So I guess they are are only ordering what they sell but I dont know its like pulling teeth trying to get 1 of these scopes and just getting excuses from both not knowing who to belive.

When did you call? Why could you not get on the waiting list? We have two models in stock currently including the 10x. The other model is the 3-12x50. Come on bye we will let you look at whatever you like.

Burris 3-12x50 Xtreme Tactical XTR 30mm Rifle Scope Burris 3-12x50 Xtreme Tactical XTR 30mm Rifle Scope
  • Olive Drab
  • Mil-Dot
  • 30mm
  • Side Focus

 

I got a look at one of these at Sportsmans Warehouse in Ankeny, Iowa. The scope is exceptionally clear and bright and is quite forgiving about minimum focus distance making it a good choice for Law Enforcement use which can deploy a sniper at very close distances in hostage situations. I was quite impressed with the scope however the one I saw had a defective rubber "O" ring at the base of the screw on caps that cover the windage and elevation turrets. After I pointed that out I'm sure it went back home to Burris. I really liked the scope, and I have some quality Leupold Mark 4 scopes to compare it to so it gets a big thumbs up for quality and value.

1-13-06 are these in stock yet. I have seen the green one at Sportsmans Warehouse in Ankeny Iowa but am more interested in the illuminated one.
