    Thumbs up Burris AR332

    I recently purchased a Burris AR332 optic for my Bushmaster. I couldn't be more pleased with e design and function. The red/green dot are very clear and adjustable. The carbine will drive tacks and I contribute that to the optic, not my shooting ability. If your in the market for an optic at least give it a look/see.

    What is the eye relief like on these? I like the scope, but never shot with one.

    Pilot, it's like a normal rifle which is what I like. Our duty M4s with the Aimpoint M2 optic, you almost have your nose to the charging handle which I don't mind but I really like being 3-5 inches off the scope.

    The M2 is not a scope. If you are focusing through it, you're using it wrong.

    many here had high hopes for the AR332, myself included but were disappointed with the finished product. "For show" Picatinny rails surrounding the body are one factor, the dot in a donut reticle is wasted when a ranging with holdover reticule, a la ACOG would have been a better approach and some retailers of this same optic under different names use a ACOG-like reticule. In addition, the built in base limits the mounting options, making this essentially an AR only optic. Burris makes some decent optics, but this one has earned a bunch of "pass"es around here.

    kmrtnsn: I know what the M2 is. I've been using it ever since the military adopted it and we have been using them on our M4s for years. As far as the Burris is concerned, I like it and that's about all that matters.

    I had read a few complaints the reticle was canted. I finally got to check one out and sure enough, the complaints were valid.

    I researched them before I bought one, and if I recall correctly those were early production and the issue is fixed. Mine is not canted.

    Personally I like mine, though it's since been replaced my an Aimpoint, which better suits the type of AR shooting I do.

    Thanks. For AR's I prefer 3-5 inches also. Does the AR-322 allow this much I relief or are you saying it is more like a hunting scope where you must be closer?

    I would say it's 3+ I had mine mounted directly in front of a Magpul BUS and found it comfortable and natural to shoot with the stock extended to the third it fourth position.
