I was looking at a Burris 4.5-14x42 Fullfeild II Tactical scope but then I came across an ATN 3-9x55 Professional and cant make my mind up. I like the ATN rectical but am unshure of their quality, with a burris I know what to expect. I am putting this on an AR15 so I am also thinking the 55mm might be a little to big and make my gun look goofy and top heavy. Most of all i was just wondering how ATN stacks up against Burris.

If you do a search on ATN you'll see that it should generally be avoided like the plague.

Ok well the ATN is out, now I am looking at a Leupold 3-9x40 Mark IV PR as an option too. Any thoughts on this vs. the Burris 4.5-14x42 Fullfeild II Tactical ?

Mostly paper punching at 100-500 yards. I am also going to keep it in my Jeep when I go wheeling so I need a scope that isn't finiky to bumps and vibrations.

Well leaning towards the Burris because my freind has a Mark IV PR and I just want to see the difference between the two, and i have allways liked burris optics. I got a week till I can order so im shure ill think it over real good(or just drive me crazy), till then any input would be appreciated.
Here is Pic of the gun that it will be going on. |
