Never used a Burris. Can't comment on that. When I bought the Pro Staff, I was prepared to buy a Loupy.....walked outsite with a Sightron *spell check*, Leupold, and couple of Nikons...Seeing that they all have great warrenties and customer service providing something went wrong internally, I went with the clearest option.....minus the obvious winner Swarovski....needed to collect a few more cans for that one ....Next scope for next rifle will probably be a Buckmaster Series or Monarch Series......HOWEVER.........those 56mm objective Leupolds are oh so tempting....but would probably turn me into a 10-15min after shooting light poacher lol.
