BURRIS Eliminator 5
The BURRIS Eliminator 5 is a game-changer for hunters looking for precision at long ranges. Featuring a powerful 4x-16x magnification and a 50mm objective lens, this scope provides crystal-clear clarity, making it ideal for varying shooting distances. The real standout is its built-in rangefinder, which instantly calculates the perfect holdover point for your shot. Whether you're targeting small game at close range or taking down big game at 500 yards, the Eliminator 5 adapts to your needs. I mounted it on my .308 and tested it through dense woods and wide-open fields, and it performed flawlessly—quick, accurate, and efficient. This is the kind of scope that makes every shot count.
Nightforce NXS
For those getting started in the Precision Rifle Series (PRS), the Nightforce NXS 8-32x56mm scope is an excellent option. Designed for precision, this scope features a versatile magnification range that ensures no target is beyond reach. The ZeroStop elevation technology allows for quick returns to zero, while the broad 8-32x magnification provides versatility for various applications. The MOAR-T reticle with .0625 MOA lines facilitates accurate range finding and holdover estimation. Constructed from durable aircraft-grade aluminum, this scope is built to withstand tough conditions. The second focal plane design ensures that the reticle maintains size relative to the target as you zoom in or out, and the illumination enhances visibility during low-light situations. With its advanced optics, the NXS delivers bright images and reliable performance in any environment.
