Droptine™ Riflescope 4.5-14x42mm is rated out of 5 by 121.
Rated 4 out of 5 by HaanSolo from Droptine 4-16x42 Ballistics Plex While I like the simplistic approach, the clear glass, and the overall quality of this scope... Only two things set this scope back in my mind. First is the coating on the scope is not as nice as others. It leaves white marks from brushing it up against anything that is some what ridged. The second being that Burris doesn't have a app for ballistics of multiple calibers, elevation, temperature, built on the retical you are using. IE I am shooting an AR15 in the 6.5 Grendel and their chart does not include this. I would like to be able to enter my info/dope and have it calculated.
Overall I love it, but it could be better.

Rated 5 out of 5 by kw_kidwell from Excellent quality and value. I bought this scope to replace an early Weaver (El Paso) scope that wouldn’t hold windage anymore. I have always heard good things about Burris so I decided to give them a try. I wasn’t disappointed! I compared this model to the Leupold VX-Freedom series for price and aesthetics on an older gun. I’ve been happy with my purchase so far. My rifle is a 1967 Savage Model 99 chambered in 308 and is my stalking/truck gun so it won’t ever see long range but the clarity and light transmission are fantastic for my needs. I’m totally happy with my choice and would recommend the Droptine to anyone needing a great scope at a fair price point.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Norske from Everything works really well The 4.5-14X42 Droptine replaced an older 6X Burris Widefield I had on a sporter weight Ruger M77 MKII 22-250. The extra magnification really helps my 69-year-old eyes. When zeroing the rifle/scope the adjustments worked perfectly. The scope is typically Burris bright, which is an advantage at the indoor 100m range I was using. I quit shooting when I had a 1/2" three shot group off the sandbags at 100 yards. I could see myself pull the last shot to the left so it didn't join the first two in their common bullet hole.

Rated 4 out of 5 by hammerjack from Clear As A Bell! Optics are very clear. I have the G2B Mil-Dot reticle...a little too "busy" for me but the mil-dots and hash marks are very clear. For my eyes, the 14X didn't seem to offer more than my other 12X scope, and I'm stepping up to something in the 18X to 20X range. I would recommend it to those who like the G2B Mil-Dot reticle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Duke11 from Droptine 3x9x40 Just bought it to replace Nikon 3x9x40

Great product for the price
I put in on my sons (9 years old)7mm08 savage axis and he is grouping his shots in a Dixie cup at 200 yards

Rated 4 out of 5 by TexasMike from Burris Droptine 4.5 x 14 x 42 Nice Scope I have had this scope about 3 months now, and this scope is very easy to use and the range adjustments are super easy. I have taken deer so far with it at 130 yards and at 60 feet. Both shots were dead on, despite the significant magnification and range adjustments needed on the scope between the 100 yard setting and the <50 yard setting. I definitely recommend taking the time to site in at 100 yards and then shoot at 50 yards and 200 yards to have an accurate understanding of your particular projectile's trajectory. Don't just rely on the elevation hash marks in the scope. The light collection and clarity even in low light conditions is excellent, and the extra 5x magnification eliminates the need for a spotting scope at the range. My only complaint with this optic is the external lens will fog up repeatedly when the cold dawn air warms to morning light. So keep a lens cloth handy. I would definitely buy another Burris Droptine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by robmcd from Great scope for the money! I bought this scope for a Ruger 10/22 Sporter. The quality is excellent, It has bright optics, and the 22 LR BDC works very well.

Can I use my 200019 scope on a 308?
Yes they can really be used on any caliber you choose. The main difference you'll run into will be the parallax. For the Rimfire version it is set at 50 yards.

Just got a Burris Droptine 4.5-14x42mm for my franchi momentum 6.5 Creedmore. What base, rings, etc. do I need to mount? Thank you!
According to Franchi, they are currently shipping those with Weaver bases. If your rifle does not have those, I would recommend the XTB two piece base. The Momentum should share the same drill and tap pattern as the Remington 700.

Can I mount this scope on a m1a scout squad with the forward rail?
This scope will not have sufficient eye relief to be used as a scout scope. We recommend using one of the scout scopes. https://www.burrisoptics.com/scopes/scout-riflescopes

Just purchased a Droptine (model #200019) for use on my Ruger 10/22 Barracuda target rifle. Which ring height set up do you recommend please? In case you aren't familiar with the Barracuda 10/22, there is a picatinny rail on the receiver.

I have a Tikka 270 and i was wondering if a 4.5x14 x42 have to much magnification for Deer shooting?
It will be just fine, crank it up for open country, and go to lowest setting for brushy country.

Will the scope take the shock of a Savage axis 30.06?
All Burris Optics are recoil rated to beyond .50BMG in both directions of recoil.
