The Burris Optics 3.3-18x50 XTR III MAD Riflescope is designed with the proprietary Modular Adjustment Dial (MAD) turret system that allows you to order custom turret knobs to make the scope truly your own. This model ships with a standard exposed tactical elevation turret knob that gives you fast and full access to the wide adjustment range and a capped low-profile windage knob. Burris includes a low tactical windage knob if you require or want to have fast access to the windage adjustment, and you can order laser-etched custom dials calibrated to your rifle's specific ammunition and load so your ballistic drop is as accurate as possible.

Optically the XTR III comes with a powerful zoom mechanism to bring the magnification from a low 3.3x for close-range varmint hunting to a high of 18x that will allow you to reach out to long distances when stalking large game. Its wide 50mm objective draws in the large amounts of light that are required for low-light conditions such as during dawn and dusk, when game is most active, or in challenging conditions like moving under dense canopies. Complementing the objective size are index-matched multicoatings that are engineered specifically for the lens glass to maximize light transmission and deliver bright high-contrast views at all magnifications.

To get you precisely on-target the windage and elevation turrets have impact point corrections of 1/10 MIL per click with 16 MIL of adjustment range on the windage and an exceptional 35 MIL on the elevation that speaks to its longer range capabilities. The reticle is specifically designed for precision shooting at the competition level, with an array of hashmarks on all axes to give you the tools you need to get precisely on-target. To improve shot precision and ease of use it is located on the front (first) focal plane so when the magnification of the scope is increased, the reticle's proportional size to the view changes as you increase or decrease magnification—so the reticle's subtensions remain constant throughout the entire zoom range, eliminating the need to do time-consuming calculations.

Optical Performance
  • Broad 3.3-18x magnification for precise accuracy at close to long range
  • Large 50mm objective lens provides the light-gathering capability required to ensure views remain bright and clear in low light conditions or when observing targets at long distances at maximum magnification
  • Index-matched Hi-Lume multiple anti-reflection coatings are specifically formulated for the lens glass to increase light transmission and deliver bright and clear high-contrast images with limited distortion and accurate color rendition
  • 37.5' field of view at 100 yards on 3.3x power, 6.8' on 18x
  • Up to 4" maximum eye relief presents a comfortable eye box
  • Exceptional 8.6mm exit pupil on 3.3x, 2.7mm @ 18x
SCR MIL Reticle Details
  • "Special Competition Reticle" (SCR) is optimized for tactical and competition shooting
  • First (front) focal plane placement: When magnification is adjusted, the reticle size changes proportionally, so subtension values remain accurate at all powers
  • 1/2 MIL holdover lines
  • 2/10 MIL and 1 MIL windage hold-off lines for precision
  • 1/10 MIL ranging brackets on the crosshairs, at the top, left, and right extremes
  • Increases speed and precision for wind hold-off and for range estimation and impact measurement
Use and Handling
  • 1/10 MIL per click impact point correction
  • 16 MIL windage adjustment range
  • Exceptional 35 MIL elevation range
  • Modular Adjustment Dial (MAD) System on elevation and windage
  • Zero click stop knobs allow user to quickly revert back to zero without counting clicks
  • Finger-adjustable turrets allow for easy adjustment in the field without tools
  • Side focus parallax correction turret to adjust from 25 yards to infinity for precision short-distance shooting

MAD Turret System:

  • Modular Adjustment Dial (MAD) System lets user add custom low-profile tactical knobs with laser-etched markings that perfectly match the trajectory of any ammunition and load
  • Exposed standard tactical elevation knobs and low capped windage knobs ship installed on scope; low exposed tactical windage knob ships with scope to give users an option out of the box
  • Order custom knobs through Burris Customer Service
Construction Details
  • Large 34mm single-piece maintube adds the strength required for use on high-caliber rifles as well as providing the room required for the wide elevation adjustment range
  • Lightweight and durable aluminum housing
  • Matte black scratch-resistant low-reflectivity anodized finish
  • Aggressive Dragon Scale knurling and large diameter knobs provide sure handling for adjustments in any weather, even with gloves
  • Nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme changes in temperature and environmental conditions
