es Johnson has been on a quest

since childhood, a quest that has

honed his skills as an outdoorsman

and given him a rich life pursuing his

true passion – predator hunting. es

and Burris®have teamed up to pro-

duce a riflescope uniquely designed

to take out fast-moving predators.

With high performance glass and an

anti-reflection device, you won’t miss

a single predator in the early morning light or the setting

sun. World-champion coyote caller es Johnson only puts

his name on the highest quality predator hunting gear, so

hit the field with your new Predator Quest® riflescope

and start bringing home the hides.

Backed by the legendary Burris Forever Warranty, you will enjoy

the following features of your Predator Quest Riflescope:

• Fi ld Prov n R ticl T chnology. The Ballistic Plex E1

reticle has both trajectory compensating technology

and cascading dots that can be used to compensate

for wind drift or running coyotes. This reticle design is

quick, simple and accurate – everything you need

when chasing fast-moving predators.

• Low Profil Adjustm nt Knobs. The finger- adjustable,

low profile E1 Hunter adjustment knobs create a sleek

profile. Turret indications always reflect a change in the

point of impact, resulting in pinpoint accuracy.

• Anti-R fl ction D vic (ARD). ARD’s reduce lens glare

and provide greater concealment to prevent detection.

• High P rformanc Glass. Provides excellent brightness

and clarity with lasting durability – exactly what you

expect from Burris.

• Ind x-Match d, Hi-Lum ® Multi-Coat d L ns s.

Enhanced low-light performance and glare elimination,

making more shots possible and increasing your

success rate.

How to Us Your Pr dator Qu st Rifl scop

Ey pi c Focusing

The eyepiece can be focused so that the reticle appears

sharp and black. Adjusting the focus is quick and easy

to do, just follow this procedure:

1. Point the scope at the sky or a plain wall and take a

quick glance through the scope. If the reticle appears

sharp and black, no further adjustment is necessary.

2. If the reticle does not appear sharp and black, take

quick glances through the scope while rotating the

focus ring until the reticle pattern is sharp and black.

NOTE: Do not look through the eyepiece as you turn

the focus ring. Your eyes will adjust to the out-of-focus

condition.

Windag /El vation Adjustm nt for E1 Hunt r Knobs

The low profile E1 Hunter Knobs feature a finger

adjustment for both windage and elevation. Once you

have successfully zeroed your scope, you can set the

zero on your dials with these simple steps:

1) With turret caps removed, grip knob top firmly to

keep knob from turning.

2) Put pen or other small

object into the small hole

located on the dial.

3) Keeping firm grip on the

knob, use the pen to turn

the dial back to zero, lining

up the number zero with

the white indicator dot.

Only the numbered dial

should move – do not

allow the entire knob to

move or else you will alter

your windage and elevation zero settings.

NOTE: You do not have to set the zero on your dials for

your scope to function properly. Doing so can give you

peace of mind that your zero is set, plus you can easily

confirm if it has moved at any time, but this step is optional.

Mounting th Scop

We recommend using high-quality rings and bases,

like Burris Zee Rings or Signature Rings. Quality

components ensure that your scope will remain safely

and securely mounted, and will provide the maximum

accuracy. Use care when mounting your scope as

damage caused by improper mounting is not covered

by the Burris Forever Warranty.

Anti-Reflection Device (ARD)

Predator Quest riflescopes come with an anti-reflection

device. The honeycomb construction reduces lens

glare, and provides greater concealment to prevent

detection. The ARD easily installs onto the front

objective tube. Simply insert the threaded end into

the front objective tube; turn clockwise until the ARD

is snug. Be careful not to over-tighten.

Care & Maintenance

Predator Quest riflescopes are fully waterproof and

fogproof. In the event that the lenses are subjected to

dust, dirt or mud, follow these steps to clean and

protect the lens surface. Failure to remove grit before

final cleaning is sure to damage lens coatings.

Coarse dirt/debris must be removed from the lens

surface. The most convenient way to clean a lens

surface is to use a ens Pen. Position the scope so

particles will fall away from the lens, and then use the

ens Pen or soft brush to gently whisk away the debris

while blowing on the lens to dislodge the particles. For

heavy dirt, like dried mud, use a spray of clean water or

lens cleaning fluid to remove the dirt.

Your Predator Quest riflescope will provide a reliable

performance given reasonable care and treatment.

All moving assemblies are permanently lubricated.

Only occasional cleaning of the outside of the scope

and the exterior lenses is required. Never disassemble

your scope. Disassembly by anyone other than our

factory will void the warranty. If you have any other

problems with your riflescope, return it to the Burris

factory for repair.

Ballistic Plex E1™

The Ballistic Plex E1™reticle helps you overcome two of

the biggest challenges when shooting long-distance:

determining holdover at distance and hold-off for

wind drift. This technology is based on the popular

Burris Ballistic Plex reticle that redefined trajectory

compensation.

Trajectory Compensation

To better determine holdover and compensate for

bullet drop, the patented Burris design incorporates

hash marks on the lower vertical crosshair that are

calibrated to provide dead-on aiming from 100 yards

to 500 yards for many of the most common hunting

cartridges. Examples of the actual bullet path for many

of the most popular cartridges are available for down-

load on our website at www.burrisoptics.com.

For calculating wind drift, the E1 reticle has a series of

small cascading dots, placed to the left and right of the

reticle. These dots represent the effect of a 10 mph

crosswind for most predator hunting cartridges. For a

5 mph crosswind, simply hold into the wind half the

distance to the dot. If the crosswind is 20 mph, simply

hold into the wind twice the distance from the center

post to the dot. If you know the distance to your target

and the speed of the wind, you can quickly determine

the correct aiming point to compensate for both

bullet drop and drift.

Burris provides ballistic reference labels for the

Predator Quest reticles on our website

www.burrisoptics.com. You can print out these labels

and attach them to your rifle for quick reference. With

access to a ballistics program, you can easily develop

your own charts for custom handloads.

By shooting at known distances (i.e. 100, 200, 300, 400,

500 and 600 yds.), you can determine the bullet drop

that corresponds to each ballistic line for your cartridge.

Practice Makes Perfect

The Ballistic Plex E1 reticle is much more accurate than

guessing holdover and faster and more reassuring to

most shooters than using target-type adjustments. The

nature of ballistics is such that everything is theoretical

and if any one of the variables change (altitude,

temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, bullet

design, barrel length, chamber fit, seating depth, etc.)

so does the ballistic performance. For maximum accuracy,

practice at long ranges under similar conditions to

those which you will experience in the field.

Technical Tip

For maximum accuracy at long ranges, instead of

sighting in at 100 yards using the center of the reticle,

sight in at a longer range such as 400 yards using the

400-yard ballistic line. This will decrease the amount of

long-range error that can occur under various environ-

mental conditions, or when slightly under estimating

point-of-impact at shorter ranges.

Shoot Responsibly

ong-range shooting is extremely challenging and can

be very rewarding. But along with it comes tremendous

responsibility, especially when hunting. To ensure you

take ethical shots at longer ranges, it is essential to

know the yardage to an animal and your wind conditions.

For these reasons, we strongly encourage that you

practice to determine your own shooting capabilities

and do not shoot beyond them in the field.
