Burris Veracity 2-10x42 30mm Rifle Scope, Ballistic Plex E1, Side Focus, MAD System MOA, Matte Finish
The Burris Veracity 2-10x42 30mm rifle scope is a versatile hunting and range optic built to handle variable-power shooting from close cover to mid-range distances. The 2-10x magnification range and 42mm objective give you a bright, wide field of view at lower powers while delivering enough magnification for precision work when you dial up. The 30mm tube construction provides ample elevation and windage adjustment for long-range work, and the matte finish cuts glare without telegraphing your position in the field.
What sets the Veracity apart is its thoughtful feature set for working shooters. The side focus mechanism lets you adjust parallax without taking your eye off the scope, keeping your cheek weld consistent through magnification changes. The Ballistic Plex E1 reticle is designed to simplify ballistic compensation in the field—no calculator required. The MOA-based adjustment system (Minute of Angle Dial, or MAD) works in plain, repeatable increments that most hunters and shooters already understand.
This is a scope that doesn't make you choose between light transmission, usable magnification range, and field-proven reliability. It's equally at home on a whitetail rifle in timber, a varmint gun at the range, or a general-purpose hunting setup where conditions might change. Burris built a reputation on making optics that work in the real world, and the Veracity delivers on that promise without unnecessary complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rifles will the Burris Veracity 2-10x42 scope fit on?
The 30mm tube and standard Weaver-style rings or mounts work on most modern centerfire rifles set up for scope mounting. We recommend confirming your rifle's mounting system and tube clearance before purchase. Our team can help you verify compatibility with your specific setup.
Is the Ballistic Plex E1 reticle easy to use for hunting at distance?
Yes—the Ballistic Plex E1 is designed to simplify distance shooting in the field. The reticle layout helps you compensate for bullet drop without adjusting turrets, which is useful when you don't have time to dial or need to be ready for multiple ranges. You'll want to print or memorize your load's ballistic chart beforehand, but the reticle design makes application straightforward.
Does the side focus adjustment work smoothly during hunting?
The side focus (parallax adjustment) mechanism lets you dial out parallax error without moving your shooting position or shifting your eye away from the reticle. This keeps your sight picture stable and your cheek weld consistent when switching between magnification settings or engaging targets at different distances.
What's the benefit of the 30mm main tube versus a 1-inch tube?
The 30mm tube gives you significantly more adjustment range—important for long-range hunting or precision rifle work where you may need more elevation or windage correction than a 1-inch scope provides. The larger diameter also increases the internal mechanical space, which Burris used to optimize this scope's optics and durability.
