Burris Optics 5.5-30×56 XTR III MAD Riflescope (SCR MIL Reticle)

Description

Track bullet trace through heavy mirage using the Burris Optics 5.5-30×56 XTR III Riflescope, featuring an SCR MIL reticle, 34mm monotube, and Modular Adjustment Dial system. Engineered for long-range tactical matches, it provides 90 MOA total elevation travel with 1/10 Mil clicks, delivering an expansive field of view while adding notable mass to tactical chassis.

Machined in Colorado from high-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, the rugged 34mm body resists receiver twisting forces on heavy match bolt guns. Premium extra-low dispersion lenses optimize photon transmission, eliminating chromatic fringing along high-contrast target borders. Sealed O-rings and dry nitrogen purging eliminate internal moisture hazards across humid regions, securing IP67 waterproof defense. Weighing 32.0 ounces at 15.4 inches long, this optic leads the Burris Optics precision riflescope line.

Key Features of Burris 5.5-30×56 XTR III

• 5.5-30x magnification range covers mid-range tactical work and 1500-yard precision shooting
• 1/10 Mil tactical turrets yield positive finger-adjustable clicks for straightforward zeroing
• 90 MOA internal elevation stroke allows extreme adjustment range on modern sporting rifles
• Front focal plane SCR MIL reticle maintains true hold values across all magnification powers
• Modular Adjustment Dial system accepts custom laser-engraved elevation knobs for match loads
• XTR III tactical riflescope erector components maintain point of aim under sustained rapid fire
• Side focus parallax turret adjusts focal sharpness from 25 yards to infinity without reach

Internal Erector Elevation Travel Bounds

Balanced internal leaf springs support the erector tube against mechanical vibration, maintaining zero integrity within 1 percent across all elevation travel sweeps. The micro-click turret drums deliver precise 1/10 Mil adjustments, requiring ten individual tactile clicks per mil of bullet impact movement. The system functions across thermal cycles from -20°F to 140°F, resisting grease migration around internal mechanical threads. Recoil ratings cover standard centerfire rifle calibers up to .338 Lapua Magnum, absorbing up to 1000G of impulse shock.

Match Receiver Scope Ring Alignment

The 34mm main tube requires heavy-duty scope rings, providing 6.0 inches of receiver mounting space. High 34mm rings keep the 56mm objective clear of heavy match barrels on continuous receiver rails. Torque ring cap screws to 18 to 20 in-lbs and mount base nuts to 45 to 50 in-lbs. Eye relief sits between 3.5 and 4.0 inches, providing a safe visual pocket.

Tactical Operation Maintenance Step Protocol

The magnification ring rotates with balanced resistance, allowing deliberate power selection without shifting shooter shoulder pocket positions. This precision match scope is not engineered for lightweight stalking rifles under 6 lbs or quick-pointing brush shotguns. Adhere to a disciplined armorer schedule to maintain peak optical performance.

• Remove loose grit from external lenses with a soft optical brush every 250 rounds
• Inspect scope ring fasteners and base screws with a torque tool every 500 rounds
• Clean external turret threads and lubricate cap seals every 12 months
