Reviews & Ratings for Burris Scope Fullfield 3-9x40 E1 Ballistic Plex Muzzleloader 1in Tube SFP Rifle Scope — 13 reviews — Page 1

I’ve used LEUPOLD scopes for 50 years. In the recent past they started using twin erector springs. Burris has been using them longer, plus this scope uses STEEL TWIN erector springs and not brass ones. Big plus is the reticle is ETCHED onto the erector lens which cannot break like traditional wire reticles. This scope brightness exceeds anything else on the market at one third the price of the competition. As a marketing gimmick, Burris lists this scope for 4 specific calibers but in reality all four scopes are identical with parallax set at 50 yards instead of traditional 100 yard parallax. This makes it perfect for 22 lr rifles. I seriously doubt it can be knocked out of alignment even with neglectful or intentional treatment. Twin steel erector springs and glass etched reticle is a perfect combination!

Very good quality scope for the money. Their forever warranty makes it a no brained!

Excellent quality, very clear and at a great price.

You simply cannot do better than this scope! It checks all the requirements perfectly! Dual erector springs, glass on par with $1,000 scopes, one piece solid tube, and no questions asked warranty!

Received this in the mail a few weeks ago from Optics Planet. Bought it as an upgrade for my in-line muzzle loader. Fast shipping, easy to tracking. Quality of Burris scope appears spot on for the money! Looking forward to having it mounted and ready for next season.

This a an adequate muzzleloader scope and a good price from OpticsPlanet. I have several Burris Scopes and they don't dissappoint.

I do not think much more is needed on a Muzzleloader Scope.

Has great glass will continue to buy Burris Scopes.

This is a good product at a good price. Would recommend this product

The view on it is amazing but the BDC dots on the reticle are so small they are more or less non existant and very hard to see even on a bright sunny day I can only imagine last light and that stud buck walks out and you cant see the BDC dots to make the shot.

I have 3 of these E1's now, 2 in 350 Legend and this one. I put this on a CVA Wolf V2. Scope holds zero well and I was able to get sub 1 inch groups at 100 yards. The etched reticle is really nice and I believe leads to higher durability. These E1's are my favorite sub $200 hunting scope. This is a high value scope, you get a lot for the money.

I a few minor annoyances/issues with them:

-Parallax is fixed at 50 yards, so the target is slightly blurry at 100, would have been better set at 100 or even 150. This really isn't an issue for hunting though.
-Low light performance could be better, very difficult to see anything in the last 5 to 7 minutes of shooting light.
-Zeroing out the turrets after zeroing the scope is really difficult without accidently turning the turrets and messing up your zero. This probably isn't an issue for most folks, but I do like to zero the elevation turrets so I can make vertical adjustments for different loads.
-The zoom ring is really stiff and hard to turn when cold.

I don't think there is a better 3-9x40 in the $150 range. Which is nice when you have several rifles to outfit with optics. I like it well enough that I plan to buy another Muzzleloader version for my old Knight which has a defective scope on it now.
