Burris Fullfield (original) 3-9x40

Data Provenance

Who tested: Rokslide field eval (2024-03) — read the original write-up, which is the source of record. Who structured it: Optics Intel. We extract outcomes and cite; the testing labor is theirs.

Sample size: 1 (single serial number, ~2004 production) — evidence about this unit, not a verdict on every unit shipped.

Stage-by-stage record

Tracking / RTZNot tested
18″ dropsPass
36″ (single)Pass
3×36″Failmajor shift high/right on the 9×36″ series — evaluator suspects the rings, not the scope
Long-termNot tested

Mount setup

Rings/mount: Vortex Pro, degreased. Ring torque: 18 in-lb. Torque caveat: the source flags mount-torque questions for this eval — weigh the results accordingly.

Notes

Partial eval (zero + drops). The same 9×36″ shift pattern occurred with three scopes on these rings.
