RE: burris fullfield
I have one mounted on a Mod 70 in 7mm WSM. Haven't shot it past 100 yards so I can't vouch for the BDC. As far as low light I shot a mule deer this past season with less than 10 minutes of legal shooting timeleft. Had no problem with placing the cross hair where it belonged.

RE: burris fullfield
There is no doubt these are great scopes. I had one for a while and it must have been a lemon. I could not get repeatable adjustments, it had an oval shaped view, and small spot of debris in one of the internal lenses. I ended up getting it repaired under warranty, but it still never worked right. I ended up selling it.
I also had a Black Diamond 3-12x50 that was a monster of a scope. The Burris Diamond scopes are awesome optically, but they are heavy and it didn't quite fit on the rifle I wanted to use it on. I sold it too.
For the most part I was pleased with Burris and their customer service. I would consider Burris again.

RE: burris fullfield
Some love them, and some hate them. I am a hater. I have owned several fullfields, Signatures, and even a Black diamond, and I will never own a Burris again. The Black Diamond was definitely the best that I had, but my eyes did not like them. I thought it might have been just me (but I have heard from others that have had the same problem), but I could not get the paralax right for my eyes. Good luck with your though.
