Burris Optics 4-16×50 Eliminator III Laser Rangefinder/Riflescope X96 Reticle and Fixed Switch
When every second counts the Burris Optics 4-16×50 Eliminator III Laser Rangefinder Riflescope eliminates the need to waste time switching between your rangefinder and rifle – just tap, adjust your aim, and pull the trigger. Optically, the Burris Optics 4-16×50 Eliminator is outfitted with a wide and versatile zoom range and an objective that has excellent low-light capabilities for accurate target identification at dawn and dusk, or under a heavy canopy. Index matched, multi-coated optics further boost the low-light abilities while also improving color rendition and contrast.
The laser rangefinder rifle scope accurately ranges targets from 50 to 1200 yards, and is complemented with a built-in inclinometer that measures the upward or downward angle relative to the target. A bullet drop compensation system that uses the measured range, angle, and the user-inputted information on the cartridge in use, to activate and illuminate a adjusted aim point on the reticle. The Burris Optics laser rangefinder rifle scope can be programmed for hundreds of commercial loads or, if shooting custom rounds, users may choose a commercial load with specs most closely matching the custom rounds.
Designed to withstand the rigors of the wild, the housing is made of durable and lightweight 6061 T6 aluminum with a scratch and corrosion-resistant matte-black anodized finish. Its one-piece main-tube is nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to give it waterproof and fogproof performance. For a solid connection, the scope mounts on standard Picatinny/Weaver rail systems. This version of the Eliminator has ergonomically-placed activation switches on both sides of the housing directly behind the objective bell. This enables easy activation with a simple movement of the support hand.
