New 4-16x Mr. T Burris Titanium
Riflescope
As Burris Company celebrates its
30th year of operations, it also has unveiled what it refers to as The Worlds
Strongest Riflescope. Having already earned a reputation for building some of the worlds
finest riflescopes, the Colorado company decided to take durability to the ultimate level.
The new Mr. T Burris Titanium riflescope addresses structural integrity by using titanium
as the foundation metal. On top of the titanium, Burris applies an even harder and more
durable nitride coating using a state-of-the-art, high-intensity physical vapor deposition
process. The Burris Mr. T riflescope also features a nearly scratch-proof, high-tech lens
coating that was developed for lenses used in applications for space exploration.

Titanium, being stronger than
aluminum and lighter than steel, makes the ultimate stronghold for a scopes internal
workings. Mr. Ts entire scope tube and eyepiece are made of solid titanium, which
gives this scope a structural rigidity that is second to none.
A perfected optic system, coupled
with ultra-pure lenses, exact multicoat specifications and a large 50mm objective, Mr. T
delivers incredibly bright, high-resolution and crystal clear images under the most
demanding of environmental conditions.
Mr. T riflescopes are available in
2.5-10x-50mm and 4-16x-50mm, the former with a Plex reticle and the latter with a
Ballistic Mil-Dot. Suggested retail price is $1,786 and $1,964, respectively. For more
