The Burris Handgun 3-12x32mm scope is built for handgun hunters who shoot magnum revolvers and single-shot pistols at distances where most pistol optics quit. It runs a 3-12x magnification range on a 1-inch main tube, giving you a wide field for closer shots and enough top-end power to reach out on game. Eye relief runs 10 to 19 inches at low power and 10 to 12.5 inches at high power, which keeps the ocular well clear of your face under heavy recoil. If you're comparing magnified pistol optics, this sits in our 3-12x handgun scope lineup as a serious hunting choice.
The scope carries the Ballistic Plex reticle, a trajectory-compensating design that can be matched to any caliber and bullet weight once you confirm your drop at known distances. It sits in the rear focal plane, so the reticle holdover stays constant regardless of magnification. Adjustments track in 1/8 MOA clicks with 28 MOA of total elevation and 28 MOA of windage capability, and the parallax/focus adjusts from 25 yards to infinity for sharper aiming at distance. The 32mm objective feeds a 38mm ocular, with exit pupil running 11mm at low power down to 2.7mm at high. Capped Hunter-style knobs protect zero in the holster and field. Overall length is 10.8 inches at 16 ounces.
This optic earns its place on hunting handguns chambered in heavy magnums where recoil punishes lesser optics and shots can stretch well past iron-sight range. The long eye relief is what makes it work on a pistol platform, keeping the scope safely forward while you stay on target. Sight it in at your hunting distance, verify the Ballistic Plex holds against your load, and you have a repeatable holdover system for field shots. Pair it with mounts rated for your frame. For other powered options, browse our full range of magnified optics or step up to a 2-7x handgun scope for shorter-range work.
It uses the Ballistic Plex reticle, a trajectory-compensating design with holdover points below center. You can match it to any caliber and bullet weight by confirming your bullet drop at known distances. It sits in the rear focal plane, so holdover spacing stays the same across the full 3-12x magnification range.
