The Burris is a fairly good idea and helps some shooters with limited capability or experience, if we have to draw a line in the sand then lets say out to 500yrds.
You are obviously more experienced and successful and I'm sure appreciating quality glass and a fine reticle intersection for precise aiming at long distance, both things the Burris lacks.
Use that Burris at 600yrds at night and you wont be impressed, the Burris has a bright 1/3 moa dot shielding your view with its coloured 'flare' around the aimpoint, it's then you will know your Nightforce has been giving you a quality experience and is the right tool for the job.
The Burris is a shortcut in the world of LR, it needs better glass and a laser etched reticle, with .1 moa adjustable intensity LED dots on the vertical crosshair, then it might suit shots in low light from 400 to ( I'm guessing here) 700yrds.
The tried and proven spot your game animal, range it, input data, dial, and send it to the chiller routine has a lot to offer, it's safe !!!!!!!!! It constantly teaches the participants and it's fun interacting with mates, high quality components including scopes will always be part of that equation.
