Hey Burris guys, I have a question.

Can one of you Burris "insiders" confirm the weight of the XTRII 1-8. The website lists it at 24.5oz, but that seems heavy to me.

I'm hunting for a scope for the SAC, and wishing to keep the weight around 16oz. Leupold (I know, I know) has an interesting model in the Mark AR line that comes in at 15oz, but I'd much rather spend my money with the locals.

From my experience, the shooting score would be unchanged, but overall placement would improve a couple notches.

Making it out of paracord is tactical AND lightweight, and ammo can be acquired from the range, saving several pounds.

For carbines any 1-4 or fixed 3.5-4 power would be good. For the precision rifle any 3.5-10 would work as well.

What about IOR scopes? They look like they have clear glass but I know nothing about them
