Burris Binoculars
Great Hunting Optics
While binoculars are not the primary focus of Burris Optics, the company does produce an excellent and affordable line of hunting binoculars made with the same precision and quality they put into their other optical products. Burris Optics is based in Greeley, Colorado and they specialize in the manufacture and sale of hunting optics, primarily rifle scopes. They are well known for, and very proud of the fact that they are able to respond to the demands of their customers by producing specialty scopes - and with over 200 configurations available, they are usually able to meet the needs with the right scope for the client.
What Makes Burris Quality So Good
Burris has built a name for themselves in the area of high quality optics for hunting. They are known for the use of some of the world's finest ground glass for their lenses and their multi-coated lenses are index-matched to each individual lens, allowing surface transmission of 99.5 percent of the light that comes in. This same exacting standard is used in the production of Burris binoculars. Even though their range of models is not extensive, Burris has covered the territory of needs and expectations when it comes to hunting binoculars. The products are targeted to hunters, but you don't have to be a hunter to enjoy the fine work and excellent quality available in the Burris binoculars. Top it off with great prices, and you've got a deal that's hard to pass up.
