Test the eye relief before buying – the Burris has a shorter exit pupil than some competitors. Fine for glassing, but awkward with eyeglasses. Also, the battery compartment isn’t weather-sealed as well as the main body.
I bought a set of the Burris and Ranger and put them side by side. The Burris has slightly better glass but they are bulky and uncomfortable in my opinion. I returned both and sportsman’s had Leica geovid r on sale at the time for $1200. If you can get the Leicas for around that price it’s definitely the way to go. Glass on the Leicas is amazing. If you can get rangers for $600 that’s not a bad option, but glass isn’t anything special. For $999 I wouldn’t consider the Burris compared to the Leicas for a couple hundred bucks more.
