Burris XTR III Durability?

[Schmo]

Curious if anyone knows how tough the XTR III is? Doesn’t look like @Formidilosus has done a field evaluation on one yet.

I haven't heard of too many breaking... but I did break the elevation turret on my XTR3i within about a month of receiving it. I think I just drew the short straw. Burris had it repaired & back to me on the 10th business day, no hassle.

I moved it from that .308win to a .22lr & now have thousands of rounds @ 75-350yds, so I've cranked on the elevation turret & parallax quite a bit. I also ran it on a 6.5cm in an NRL Hunter match this year. Not exactly a torture test, but zero issues since the repair.

I've contemplated picking up a 3-18 for an AR, but haven't yet.
