Founded in 1971 and now part of Beretta Holding, Burris Optics designs and engineers riflescopes and related equipment from its Colorado base. The brand covers entry-level hunting glass through to competition-capable tactical optics.
For precision shooters, Burris is most relevant in two areas: long-range hunting and practical/tactical competition. The Veracity and Veracity PH lines focus on FFP reticles and dial-to-distance capability for field use, emphasizing performance and reliability. The XTR series targets PRS-style matches and duty rifles with robust internals and repeatable tracking, ensuring shooters feel confident in their gear.
Burris also supports complete shooting systems with Signature Rings, spotting scopes, and rangefinders designed for real-world ballistic applications.
