I can get it for $750 if it is a good scope

This is a question for IGChris. I have never used one but I have heard from several people who shoot long range competitions that it offers a ton for its price range. If you can get it for $750, I would absolutely say to get it.

It's a good scope -- decent glass and very solid construction, but heavy. I'd get a Meopta in that range though

I'll chime in. I recently got the 3-15x50 version of the XTR II. Absolutely love it. The glass is very good...but not Swaro good. Put it on top of my AR-10. The thing is built like a tank and equally as heavy.

Adjustments are straightforward, but pay attention to the fact that there are 2 screws to loosen the turrets after zeroing. The FFP feature is my new obsession.

From my understanding, Burris bought Steiner or vice versa, and these scopes are a product of that marriage. Haven't shot in low light yet, but I've scoped out the neighborhood at "questionably legal" shooting times, and it appears to transmit more light than the Leupold VXR (30mm tube)I have and the old Zeiss Conquest (1" tube) I have (believe it was built by Meopta?).
