XTR III 3.3-18x50mm is rated 3.7 out of 5 by 3.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing value at the price point Glass is considerably better than the xtr II. It's every bit as clear as my gen2 vortex razor and considerably lighter. Tracking is spot on and clicks feel great. I also love the magnification range. Don't hesitate to buy

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic Scope! Best in its price point. I got my 5.5-30 last year and have now had quite a bit of time behind it. If you are looking for something in the $1500-$2000 range, this is your scope. It's beats out everything else in that price point (Razor gen II, Mk5HD, etc.), and comes very close to some priced a little higher. I've personally compared it to two ATACR's and as far as optical quality, it's very close. I came from an XTRII and absolutely loved it. The only downside was the optical quality, it just wasn't on par with the quality of the rest of the scope. Burris doubled down and Improved the glass A LOT on these XTRIII's, and they didn't stop there. Literally every aspect has been improved over the already proven XTRII. The turrets are frim and crisp. The mag ring is smooth and tight. The fov is amazing (best in class for sure). The eye box is very forgiving. The scr2 reticle is very fine. When you need it it's there. When you don't, you can easily see through it. It has the XTRII's famous extremely consistent tracking. There's so much more you'll have to see for yourself. They paid so much attention to detail, and it definitely shows. This scope is the best bang for the buck, by far, for a high quality and built to last rifle scope.

Does the xtr iii use the German Steiner glass?

The glass is sourced in Japan. The reticles are etched and everything is assembled in Greeley.

Is this based off the Steiner M5Xi?

Asked by: Ajone96
It's a completely different scope. Designed from the ground up in Greeley.

What’s the parallax adjustment on the XTR III 3.3-18x50mm

Is it me or does the XTR3 cost twice as much as XTR2? at $2,000 plus, there are some other companies that I would consider first. I feel like Burris is pricing themselves out of their niche market. 

Asked by: Ben353
MSRP is over $2000, MAP, or selling price is not. Average street price I am seeing is $1700'ish for the 18x, $1800'ish for the 30x. In the sub 2k price, the XTR3 will go head to head, feature for feature against any scope from any manufacturer. I've compared it to nearly all the most popular brands from $1500 to $2200 dollars.

Is 20 moa and 26 mil equal in elevation ?

Asked by: TEGG
One thing to make it easy to remember is that 1 mil = 10cm at 100 meters. Add 10cm per 100 additional meters. (Ex. 1 mil = 100cm or 1 meter at 1000 meters. Everything is based on 10. .1(one tenth of a mil the usual adjustment of one click on a mil radian scope) is equal to 1cm at 100 meters. Its much easier to calculate in my head than MOA, 1 inch at a hundred yards or True MOA 1.047 inches at 100 yards. Whatever you choose to go with make sure your reticle matches your adjustments. Mil reticle/ mil adjustments. Leupold used to put out Mark4 tactical scopes with a mil reticle and 1/4 MOA adjustments, not smart and a recipe for mistakes. Even if you're shooting a match with known distances in yards its easier to just convert it to meters before making any calculations. That's just my opinion.
