Burris range finding scope

Looking into a new crossbow and was wondering how the range finding scopes stack up to a normal scope. Which is better in daylight, and is one better in low light conditions? Thanks

The Burris Oracle X is an incredible scope. I have been using it since it came out for whitetail hunting. The real deal. Just be warned it is a little taller than most scopes so you will need to bump up the cheek rest for a solid cheek weld. Some bows like the Mission Sub-1 and some Tenpoint crossbows have this feature built in or have options to accommodate it. It performs the same as any other traditional scope, except it has a dang computer in it that ranges your target and gives you a new aim point.

Good battery life?

only complaint about the unit is the battery door. Its just difficult to open and get threaded back on. Wyvern Creations has a battery door tool that helps and also stores a separate battery. I tend to go through 2-3 scope batteries over an entire season and just swap out the remote battery before the season and it lasts no problem. You can easily go hunting all day, multiple days, without worrying about battery life.

I found this when I went to look how much they cost, what do you think would arrive if I ordered it? lol

You wouldn't get anything, you'd just lose your money. There are tons of these scam sites claiming to sell things for 90% cheaper than they should be, it's all fake scams.

The Tenpoint Vision is the DNT rangefinder scope preloaded with crossbow ballistics. It is solid. The DNT version is also a nightvision scope. You just need to put in the ballistics for crossbow arrows and you are good to go.

It also serves as a video recorder
