The Burris Droptine 3-9x40mm rifle scope is a proven hunting optic that balances magnification, light gathering, and portability in one straightforward package. This 1-inch tube scope delivers the versatility that made the 3-9x magnification range a standard for fieldwork—enough zoom to reach out on game at extended range, but still fast enough for closer shots in thick country. Built around Burris's reputation for rugged reliability, the Droptine is engineered for hunters who value simplicity and repeatability over complexity.
The optical system uses high-grade glass and precision-ground lenses sized larger than many competing scopes in the category, gathering more light for brighter, clearer images in dawn, dusk, and overcast conditions. Index-matched, Hi-Lume multicoating reduces glare and boosts low-light performance—a real advantage when hunting during prime feeding hours. The scope is fully waterproof with nitrogen-filled tubes that eliminate internal fogging, so rain, snow, and temperature swings won't compromise your shot.
What sets the Droptine apart is its no-nonsense design. The Ballistic Plex reticle features built-in holdover points for trajectory compensation at distance, letting you make precise adjustments without fiddling with turrets mid-hunt. The low-profile finger-adjustable turrets offer positive steel-on-steel adjustments that track repeatably, and a separate eyepiece and power ring allow you to mount flip-up lens caps the old-fashioned way. The 1-piece tube construction is tough enough to handle recoil from heavy-hitting calibers without losing zero.
Compact and lightweight, the 3-9x40mm configuration works well on a range of hunting rifles, from standard bolt actions to lighter synthetics where weight matters. Backed by Burris's Forever Warranty, this scope is built to last decades of field use.
| Magnification | 3-9x |
| Objective Lens Diameter | 40mm |
| Tube Diameter | 1 inch |
| Reticle Type | Ballistic Plex |
| Finish | Matte Black |
| Waterproof | Yes, nitrogen-filled |
| Model | 200017 |
The Ballistic Plex reticle is a trajectory-compensating design with holdover points built into the reticle pattern. Instead of adjusting turrets between shots at different distances, you can use the reticle marks to hold over on distant game, speeding up your shot process in the field.
Yes. The scope features a nitrogen-filled 1-inch tube that prevents internal fogging and is fully waterproof, so it will perform reliably in rain, snow, and wet hunting conditions without compromise.
The 3-9x40mm configuration is compact and lightweight, making it versatile across most hunting rifle platforms—bolt actions, lever actions, and lighter synthetic rifles where weight is a consideration.
The scope uses high-grade optical glass with precision-ground lenses that are larger than comparable scopes, allowing superior light collection. The Hi-Lume multicoating further enhances brightness and clarity while reducing glare, which is especially valuable in low-light hunting situations.
