BURRIS Eliminator 6 WOW!

Just saw all the YouTube posts on the Eliminator 6 and I just may sell my Bushnell Elite scope and get this pricey but amazing scope. It now locks like a "normal" scope. It is 4 - 20 X 51 mm objective and uses 34 mm rings.
The "6" has every sensor on it necessary for a very accurate long range shot (except wind). i.e. laser rangefinder, inclinometer, thermometer, air pressure and rifle cant. Plus an excellent reticle with lighted dot ap the proper hold over.
You must program it with a BURRIS app on your smart phone via Bluetooth to the scope. There is a lot of data to put into the app but it is all necessary for an accurate firing solution from the ballistic engine. Even hand loads can be programmed. This is no "library" of commercial loads like other models. BURRIS wants you to input the exact weather info at the time of zeroing as well as ALL the cartridge/bullet data. Hope you have a good chronograph, or can borrow one B/C you will need your rifle's velocity data.
The lenses are of ED glass which may be a first for an Eliminator scope.
If I get this scope I'll want an inexpensive model of a Kestrel weather station for accurate wind readings and hold.

PRICE-> $2,499.99 at Midway USA and Optics Planet. Eye-wateringly steep but, given the features, well worth it.

As of now only the Army's VORTEX M157 scope system has more features than the "6" and it's not for sale to civilians. Plus the scope is a 1 - 8 LPVO for battle/assault rifles, not for long range hunting use

That's pretty impressive.

Yep, this is the eliminator I've been waiting for... Just in time for my home state to ban scopes with any onboard electronics!

Calculates elevation and not windage? Hmm.

I guess the sensors can estimate elevation due to pressure, but has no way to detect wind values.

It's cool. But a lot of states are banning these scopes, would kinda suck to spend that kind of money then have your state ban them on your rifle.

No go for hunting in CO, last I heard they were possibly trying to not allow the sig bdx series too

My one and only experience with one that a buddy bought I do believe was a 3 . The scope is heavy bulky and the glass was terrible. For the cost it was not for me . That's alot to overcome . Maybe the next generation is better but lots of states they are banned as the are considered smart scopes . I'd rather have great glass and a rangefinder and ballistic app to dial from . If you do your part you can verify drop and make a drop chart and attach to the scope or rifle.

This looks like a scope to try out and learn before this coming hunting season.

I wonder if it will survive Formidilosus testing over at Rokslide? All of those bells and whistles are useless if it can't ride on my Kodiak 700 across a pasture and hold its zero.

That's a great piece of equipment. If I read the regulations right they are not allowed in Oregon.

It does give the wind value offset in the upper right corner of the screen.

Still runs on fair weather BATTERIES

Hadn't thought about that.....I wonder how long it would run at 10 degrees?
