burris fullfield II 4.5-14x42 opinions wanted

I considered it for my Sako m75ss 270WSM I bought off a fellow CGN in December, but went with a new Leupold VX3- too sweet of a deal about 2 months ago at P & D.

As for the Burris, a few of my friends have them in the FF II 3-9x40 with ballistic plex reticle and love them.
 
I have one on my .300WM hunting rifle. Works great. Nothing too fancy about it. Nice glass for the price.
 
I recently purchased an Elite 4-16x40 w/AO and DOA 600 reticle. I also looked through the Leupolds (all of them). I found the crosshairs to be too fine. It would be difficult to in low light conditions. The Burris 4.5-14 was not as clear as the Burris 3-9 on my son's rifle.

I can work with the DOA 600 reticle. It is calibrated for 7mm RM 150gr (and of course others). Good enough for deer anyways.
