I have used the search tool, but need more feedback on a specific model. I have purchased a Remington PSS .308 and will be punching paper and shooting vermin & deer. I have decided to go with a variable power optic and was looking to buy the Burris w/ballistic plex reticle.
Looking for feedback, good or bad! |

It is a good scope. All Fullfield IIs are good scopes and hard to
beat for the money. The tactical ones are regular FFII with
better knobs. It should work well for your purposes.

Thanks for the feedback. That being said, what about the signature select scopes with target knobs? I know it is more $$$$, but worth it??? |

Whether it is worth the money is your call really. Signature
Select does have better glass. In my opinion, Signature Select
and several other comparable scopes (Elite 4200 et al) are right at the
sweetspot of scopes right now: this is where you get a lot tfor the
money and to get a significantly better scope you'd have to spend MUCH
more.
That having been said, I do not know a whole lot of people if any whoe were disappointed with FFII. ILya |

.308, Just so that you know the NEW Fulfield II Tactical scopes (Matte & Olive Drab) haven't been released yet from Burris and won't be until May or even possibly June (per Burris). I can tell you that the FF II Tac. has a Hi-Lum lens multi coating on ALL lens surfaces. That gives an optical clarity while the TAC -2 adjustment knobs provide ease-of-use and accessibility. The specs for the new FF II Tac are the same as the FF II line. The only difference is that the weight is 1/2 oz larger . For example the Burris 3-9x40 FF II weight is 13oz and you just add 1/2 oz to that for the 3-9x40 FF II Tac. scopes. All other information is still the same. The length which is 12.2", eye relief 3.8"-3.1" etc... I hope this information helps. If you would like more information on this item, it is listed in there new catalog on page 20. Or you could give them a call at (970) 356-1670.. If there is anything else I left out let me know. Mary Edited by mary |

Often you must pre-order products that are in high demand. First come First served. So if you really want one then lay your money on the table. If I was going to buy a Burris this is the one I would get and it should be available by now as it came out last year, I have only seen one of them and it was the green one without the illuminated reticle and it was an awesome scope great glass 30mm tube really surprised me how clear it was at closer distances under 50 yds, this is a very solid scope:
