Burris Optics combined state-of-the-art engineering with refinements for accuracy in the 1-8×24 XTR II Riflescope. The optical system offers bright and clear images, with high contrast and true colors, thanks to the indexed-matched multi-coated optics. To compensate for wind and ballistics you have adjustable windage and elevation and a 1/10 mil impact point correction. One of central features of the scope is the Illuminated Ballistic Circle Dot Reticle that is ideal for achieving accuracy with 5.56 and .223 ammunition. It is located in the first focal plane and allows you to estimate accurate ranges at any magnification, while giving both ballistic drop compensation out to 600 yards and windage reference points. The reticle features four tapered posts, illuminated circle, and an ultra-fine illuminated center dot. This pattern is designed to provide speed at low magnifications and precision at high magnifications.

Another definite highlight of this optic is the Modular Adjustment Dial (M.A.D.) System that allows you to choose from competition-style exposed knobs, capped knobs, or custom knobs on both windage and elevation adjustments in order to match precisely the trajectory of your ammunition.

The housing is made of lightweight and durable aluminum with corrosion-resistant anodized finish. It features a 34mm single-piece maintube for resistance to shock and recoil, a nitrogen fill for fog proofing, and O-rings for waterproof performance. The fast focus eyepiece’s zoom ring and adjustment turrets and rings feature heavy knurling for improved tactile traction and non-slip operation in all weather conditions.
