Burris AR-536 Prism Sight 5X Tactical Red Dot Sight - Ballistic/CQ Reticle 300210 @ DVOR for $275 + shipping!!

5X mag, 36mm objective, 2.5" - 3.5" eye relief (but it also states that eye relief is 2" - 2.9", 3" - 3.9". I hate product descriptions like this), length 5.75", weight 18.75oz., 20' FOV @ 100yds, 0.33 MOA holdover per click, Ballistic QC reticle (looks like the reticle markings are made to correspond to 5.56 NATO rounds). Reticle illuminates in green or red. Looks like a candidate for a compact quick-acquisition budget scope for use on a Lelya or Leshiy. Also appears to have some weight to it. What do you all think? Anyone use one of these?

Burris AR-536 Prism Sight 5X 

5X mag, 36mm objective, 2.5" - 3.5" eye relief (but it also states that eye relief is 2" - 2.9", 3" - 3.9". I hate product descriptions like this), length 5.75", weight 18.75oz., 20' FOV @ 100yds...

Weight wouldn't bother me since it's with a built-in mount. 

I was intrigued when I saw your title and find the specs on some of these prismatics interesting but this one doesn't seem to have a wider field of view than some of my LPVO's on 5x. I think the 10x MTC Atom has something like a 32 foot field of view on 10x. But of course the tradeoff is extra short eye relief.

I think if I bought one of these and found the eye relief to be on the shorter end of listed specs I'd be disappointed, especially with a 20' FOV.

Just did a real quick search for other 5x prismatics and the 20' FOV seems to be inline with the other products that came up on top of the results.

Would love to try one side by side with something like my fixed 6x Dedal and see if there is an advantage to the prism scope as far as target acquisition speed.

Is that reticle made specifically for airguns? (I don't think so but asking only). If mimics the high power battle gun use then it will be useless for airguns.

5.56 NATO rounds. I’m not so sure about that which Is why I asked.

I was on the Edgun West site this morning and saw this https://www.edgunwest.com/store/optics/item/hornet-3x-prismatic-sight/

Hopefully this helps clear up any doubt or confusion in regards to these sorts of optics for use on airguns. I'd like to hear/read about the experience of shooters that have used them.

I have something similar on my Taipan Veteran compact. It works fine for me, you just have to find out what each aim point represents distance wise. The scope is a Crimson Trace 1-4x24, reticle is below.
