Burris RT-6 1-6x24

• True 1-6x LPVO range: The 1x setting supports fast, both-eyes-open shooting at short distance, while 6x magnification gives enough precision for smaller targets and longer shots without changing optics.
• Ballistic AR reticle in SFP: The second focal plane reticle stays visually consistent through the zoom range, making the sight picture easy to read, while the holdover layout helps with practical engagements out to intermediate distance.
• Compact 30 mm design: At 262.00 mm and 493.20 g, this riflescope keeps a carbine or driven-hunt rifle lively in the hands and easier to move quickly between targets.
• Capped tactical turrets: The capped adjustment system protects zero during transport and field use, which suits a rifle that is carried often and expected to stay ready without exposed controls being bumped.
• Fully multicoated, nitrogen-filled construction: Fully multicoated lenses help preserve contrast and image brightness, while the waterproof, fogproof and shockproof build supports reliable use in changing weather and hard use.

About the Burris RT-6 Series

The Burris RT-6 series sits in Burris' tactical and competition-oriented riflescope range as a compact low-power variable optic built around speed, simple handling and practical holdovers. Burris describes the line as intended for competition and tactical shooting, which explains the emphasis on a true 1x view, quick transitions and a layout that works well on modern sporting rifles and other fast-handling carbines.

A defining feature of the series is its 1-6x magnification range, combining close-range responsiveness with enough top-end magnification for more deliberate shots. The RT-6 family also uses an integrated adjustable throw lever that can be repositioned on the power ring, helping the shooter move rapidly between magnification settings under time pressure. Burris pairs this with an illuminated reticle offering 11 brightness settings, so the optic remains adaptable across bright daylight, indoor ranges and lower-light conditions. The series is also built as a practical field optic, with waterproof, shockproof, fogproof and nitrogen-filled construction, and Burris notes that the RT-6 is shorter than many 1-4x riflescopes, which helps keep the rifle compact and easy to balance.

About the Burris RT-6 1-6x24

The Burris RT-6 1-6x24 is configured as a versatile LPVO for shooters who need one optic to cover close, fast work and more deliberate shots at distance. Its true 1x setting makes it well suited to driven hunts, practical rifle competition and general-purpose carbine use, where a wide sight picture and fast target pickup matter as much as precision. Moving up to 6x magnification gives a clearer aiming point on smaller targets and helps identify details that would be harder to resolve with a non-magnified sight.

This model uses a second focal plane reticle, so the reticle appearance remains the same size throughout the zoom range. In practice, that gives a familiar sight picture at every setting and keeps the center aiming area easy to see when speed matters. The illuminated reticle uses red illumination, which helps the eye pick up the aiming point more quickly against darker backgrounds or in dimmer light. The fixed 100 m parallax suits the intended role of a low-power riflescope by keeping operation simple and reducing the need for extra adjustments in the field.

The mechanical layout also matches the optic's role. Capped turrets protect the adjustments from accidental movement, making the scope a sensible choice for rifles that are carried in vehicles, slings or cases. A 30 mm tube provides a robust mounting platform and supports a generous adjustment range, while the fast focus eyepiece allows quick reticle sharpening to the shooter's eye. With fully multicoated lenses, 84.00-101.60 mm eye relief and a compact 262.00 mm body, the RT-6 balances speed, control and practical field durability in a format that does not overwhelm the rifle.

About Burris

Burris was founded in 1971 and took its name from founder Don Burris. The company is headquartered in Greeley, Colorado, United States, and has long focused on sporting and tactical optics for shooters and hunters. Its product range includes riflescopes, red-dot and reflex sights, binoculars, spotting scopes, rangefinders, thermal optics, rings and mounts, which places Burris among the established specialist brands in this category.

Several Burris developments are especially relevant to riflescopes. The company introduced the Ballistic Plex trajectory-compensating reticle in 2000, reflecting a long-standing emphasis on practical holdover systems for field shooting. In 2002, Burris was acquired by Beretta Holdings, and it continued to expand its optics lineup with products such as the FastFire reflex sight and the Eliminator rangefinding riflescope. That history gives Burris a reputation for building optics that combine straightforward operation with features aimed at real hunting and tactical use.
