I looked at them really hard. Watched some youtube reviews, but decided against buying one because I don't trust the electronics. they are to new. maybe after they have been around for a while and have prooved to work.

I've seen a few of the YT videos and read a few reviews. The common complaint was it not powering up in sub zero temperatures. Putting warm batteries in it seemed to help. The original came out in 2023, the current model has a newer part number. I have a Burris gift cert, and can get one at a really good price.

I believe another member posted about these earlier in the year, seemed pretty happy with it. Armedginger......not sure what his longer term opinion is though.

Thanks. I just found his review.
 
So the scope was delivered. Uploaded my ballistic data for my hunting load and compared the scope turret movement/HUD to Strelok data - it matches! Just waiting on the 0moa base to show up, then off to the range. Mounting this on my Savage 110 Timberline 300WM for elk.
 
Had one, used at range for 1 month while working up a load for a new rifle in 300WinMag. Found mine not reliable.. Glass not great to my eyes. Returned it and bought a NightForce SHV scope.I have several Burris scopes so I am not a Burris hater, I just think this system is a bit too delicate for a hunting scope subject to rough use, harsh environmental exposure.Keepng batteries warm on the side of a mountain does not work for me. I also had issues with seeing display on reticle depending on where un was and my head posirion was when trying field posirtions for shooting. I was really excited by the scopes features but just did not have faith in it's reliability.

I think the idea is great but the execution is not up to my needs.
 
Little update, went to range this morning with the new 7 PRC and the Veracity PH 4-20x50.

So far, i'm real impressed with the scope. It was very simple to 0 (no different than any other scope) and the app is fairly simple too. Once zero'd you go into the app, connect your scope to your phone and select what distance you zero'd at (my case the target was 101 yards) and then hit "zero elevation turret" it does that, then if your turret is on "0" in the scope you should see the range you 0'd, in my case 101 yards. At that point you input all your ballistic data (BC, velocity, sight height etc) and hit "upload ballistics" it takes about 15-20 seconds to do, then you're set. I haven't confirmed anything at a distance yet, I will try n do that this afternoon. But when I put the ballistic data into the Hornady calculator and the berger calculator, it was a perfect match to what the burris app spit out and what was on my scope. So at this point, I think if its off its human error not the scope. But ill try to get to our private range this afternoon and hang some steel at 400, 500, 600, 700 yards and confirm it.

I guess time will tell if it can function in the harsh -45 Sask temps during deer season.

Well I was able to get out to our little private range and try it out. I had 2 12" Ar500 gongs I hung up and just worked my way back.

Started at 400 yards, dialed till the HUD (heads up display) in the scope hit 400, BOOM, ting. Impact
500 yards, dial, BOOM, ting.
625 yards, dial, BOOM, ting.
705 yards, dial, BOOM....ting.

Pretty well center punched the steel every time, at 500 I was a smidge low, but that could have been me or the fact i'm shooting factory ammo and the velocity is not real consistant. But this is just my hunting rifle, and a 12" gong is damn near size of deer vitals so if i'm hitting that i'm happy, thats a dead deer, elk or moose. Granted, there wasn't a breeze today so it was fairly easy shooting but it feels good to know that the scope works as its supposed to. I'm looking forward to trying it out when theres some wind and seeing how accurate the wind calls are.

As far as glass quality, is it a Razor or ATACR? No. But, at 700 yards I was spotting buddies misses and impacts with ease. I could easily see the gong through some trees when we first went back to shooting "line" and tried to locate it (we ended up moving it after so we weren't deflecting off trees). All in all, im impressed. Buddy was super impressed with it, how simple it was and how it took the guessing game out. Not having to carry or memorize a dope card is slick. Just range, dial, shoot.

Thanks for the update. I have mine mounted, just haven't had a chance to get to the range. I can put up paper at 100 & 200, and we have steel at 300.
