    I assume they have 1" tube ?
    I am (still) looking for my favourite HFT scope , I have a Hawke Airmax 3-12x44 sr6 now , so far the best I found , tried Viper and Falcon Merlin , both 10x
    I use the SR6 (which works great) at 8x , I prefer clear view all the way
    at what magnification does the Burris give clear view all the way ?

    thanks
    Peter

    After mytherin poor old "Raygun" I decided to dip me toe in the water with the the Timberline 4.5x14x40, hunter knobs [ bought of here] 1st impressions are mighty good, Lightweight and nicely compact, FOV and DOF ok [for me anyway] Sturdily built and the ballistic ret just seems to drop on where i like it , I have tried to induce paralax error but as of yet not getting any, it simply is or isnt if you know what i mean. I have not used it it yet in anger but up to know YES looks good........Only for use to 45 yds mind , HFT,er.....

    They are a 1 inch tube.

    I have a Short Mag which is basically the quoted model before assembly shifted out of the States but it only goes down to 23yds ish as the AO marked at 25yds can be wound slightly past the mark not 7yds (that was the compact airgun model). On this setting 8yds are fuzzy not too blurred and 45yds is clear but that is on 7 mag.
