Thread: Burris Signature HD now in NZ

Need a new optic early next year for my 284.

Got a older vx3 4.5-14x40 B+C with aftermarket top turret currently on her.

I run a VX5 2-10 on my 308 which I do 85% of my hunting with and honestly love the optic but the price of a new VX5 3-15x44 is out of my range. One of these new Burris's may fit the bill.

What's the zero stop system like to use is my query ?

It's a locking turret so not exactly a zero stop but pretty simple. For hunting ranges it's very simple as you won't use more than a revolution

I think it is like a zeiss hd5 turret where you lift it up turn to where you want then push it down to lock it on the moa amount you need. Not sure exactly how many MOA it is per rotation but I think around 14 so for a 284 that probably gets you up towards 700m~+

Any one running the 2-10 and how is it working for them .

Got a 3-15x 44 today nice clear optics can vouch that you can read street sign at 500 plus with no drama . Will be putting on my ridgeline as soon as i am able to and will let you know how it went ,But thus far very impressed .

Yeah that was the way it worked, it had a zero stop which allowed 17.5 moa from memory, however I did a shim method like used in the Vortex for a zero stop, this allowed me 30-40moa up while still having a zero stop.... Shit shouldnt have sold that Ziess.

You look through the 2-10 as well?

Yes i have , i thought it was as good, but went for the extra magnification and the zero stop and illumination .I struggle with Luepolds duplex cross hairs being that bit thick for my liking so this e3 version was much nicer to my eye and didnt cover the street sign as much at the distance i compared them to. The turrets are the lift and adjust push down type the same as the weaver superslam type . I like this method as it would be very hard to unintensonally adjust them ,not saying it would never happen but highly unlikely. Funny thing is Luepold used this same set up on their vx7 but stopped for some reason . For this reason i think the 2-10 although not having a zero stop would still be a good choice. For the extra $300 for the zero stop and illumination/magnification i think its worth the step up from the 2-10.

Handled one yesterday, big fan and will aim to be replacing my NF SHV as no need for such a flash scope these days. On that note does anyone want a NF...
