Burris pistol scopes are very highly respected.

I have a Burris 2-7x40 on my Encore Pro Hunter, which is chambered in 7mm-08.

Thus far, the scope has performed very well. I contacted Burris to ask them if I should get a scope with the locking reticles due to the relative recoil of a 7-08 handgun. They said no, the regular version will easily handle the recoil.

P.S.- If you're in the market for another scope, my 2-7 is for sale.... I'm trading up to a Burris 4-12x.
