The biggest issue I have with this type of scope just from reading about them other butt ugly IMO that I can live with as long as it works.  You are trying to do everything in one package and that doesn't always work if one part breaks. I don't know enough about them one way or another, but unless they calibrate for altitude I can't see they would be spot on, and depends on caliber used. I was just on the phone to Burris and asked some hard questions, and they did say you can program for altitute, usable distance for the lazer is around 800 yds, and 550 yds for the bullet drop dot on deer sized animals depending on caliber, and it is calibrated for it's max power, It will calibrate shooting up or down hill angles, if the battery goes dead you can still use the reticle as normal, and for handloaders if you cannot match a specific bullet in the charts they will calibrate the numbers for you on a program.  Not a lot of problems so far with electronics, mostly programing issues that were solved over the phone. The dot does move up and down so you don't have to turn knobs to adjust for holdover.  It would be kind of cool to have and play with.  If I was going to buy one I would give a hard look at the Burris.  You might want to check all the in's and out's of the others to make sure this is something suitable for your needs, and check warranties on the electronics.  Â
