How To Sight In the Oracle 2 From Burris Optics

In this video Burris Optics walks you through the process of mounting, sighting in, and teaching the Oracle 2 your bow's arrow trajectory. We also discuss storing multiple arrow profiles and how to create a more accurate arrow trajectory profile for longer distance shooting.
Burris Optics is proud to introduce the new and improved Oracle 2 Rangefinding Bow Sight. The Oracle 2’s design is based on all the customer feedback we got from the original Oracle and includes: Improved Auto-Brightness Detection, Improved Manual Brightness Control (lower levels), Improved Set-Up (micro-adjustments on LRF), better waterproofing and more accurate arrow drop calculations. The function is still the same... range your target at full draw with the push of a button. The Oracle 2 instantly provides the distance to your target and an exact aiming point that factors in the angle of your shot.
No more guessing distance, fumbling with rangefinders, dialing sights or aiming between pins. Most importantly no more watching the trophy of a lifetime walk away because you didn’t have time to range him and shoot or worse yet, tried to range him and spooked him from the movement!
Don’t leave your shot of a lifetime to chance. Get the Oracle 2 from Burris. Find what matters!
Expected to be available in June at select Burris Dealers with an estimated price of $799.

This is amazing.

[@billbraski]

You drawing without an arrow nocked gave me some crazy anxiety 🤢. 🤣. Great video👍🤘

[@mangofactory9490]

Great video, I really appreciate you guys going through the details. I just ordered my BO2 from Cabelas, it will be here next week. The only concern I have is that I am shooting 740grains out of a Hoyt Ventum 33 @ 28.5DL 70lbs. It’s a fast bow, until you send logs through it. Will the sight still be able to function as intended shooting 740 grains out of a 2021 bow?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

Yes that should work just fine. Thanks so much for choosing Burris! We'll be around if you need any assistance or have questions on the sight. Please feel free to contact us if we can help. 🍻

[@brianritch6549]

I'm really looking into one of.these sights,what I'm not understanding is setting the sight for 3 different yardages,is the 3 different yardage what gives the sight the Intel for how your bow is set up and the speed of your shots,after sighting in is this what tells the sight how to automatically adjust with the range finder??

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

The truing points help the scope build the proper curve based on real feedback. So you don't need to worry about the speed or how the bow is set up, since you're going off of actual fired feedback.

[@jcann313]

Will the oracle 2 compensate for uphill/downhill shooting? Is there a calibration for the uphill/downhill compensation? How long is the range compensating pin lit after letting off the trigger (PTT)? If shooting at moving game such as pheasant or rabbit how fast does the range compensation pin respond to the changing range?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

The range is displayed almost instantly after depressing the range button, and will stay illuminated for 90 seconds. The Oracle 2 will compensate for shooting up or down hills.

[@johnschreier8150]

With your setup, what would be the maximum yardage you could shoot at using the pin at the bottom of its range?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

Hard to say without actually trying it but we've been able to get beyond 100 yards with relative ease.

[@martinkelly6164]

Both videos were well done! Does using multiple point increase the accuracy of the laser "over all". 20, 30, 40 ,50.. does it help to shoot better at 80 and 90 yards or should you 20 40 60 80 to help it calibrate better to laser 20-80? OR does it matter the set distances and once the Oracle 2 has four ref distances?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

Hello Martin, Using multiple points with have no bearing on laser accuracy. However, it will build a more accurate ballistic curve for you arrow. I would always recommend using 4 point of reference to provide the shooter the most effective shot possible. If you will be shooting distances outside (further) of where you have set your initial ballistic curve, I would definitely recommend changing at least one of your data points to a further distance. This will help make sure that the curve has been created appropriately for those longer distance shots.

[@martinkelly6164]

@@BurrisOpticsCompany Understand, but what distance will be more beneficial to achieve maximum accuracy 20-80?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

I would set my curve at 40, 50, 70, and 80. for best accuracy. Most bows these days have slim to no change in arrow arch from 20 to 30, and 20 is the base line for your curve since it is zero.

[@milansekularac6196]

What is the purpose of the auxiliary peep (pin)? How well does it work in low light scenarios? Thanks and well done for the design

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

The physical pin is both an aiming point for getting the sight setup AND a failsafe in case of battery failure. It works almost as well as a fiber optic pin from a conventional bow sight.

[@rogerstevens8222]

@@BurrisOpticsCompany THE ? was, the aux. peep, not the 20 yd pin.

[@davidragland3535]

With this site, could you have a 20 yard pin an a pin every 10 yards out to let's say 60 - 70 yards? Or if you only have 3 or 4 pins set and you range a deer at a distance that you did not set a pin to, will it give you a pin for that spot anyway? Thank you. Merry Christmas.

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

Hi there! Once you set your desired ranges, it will give you a range for everything in between, and beyond until it determines there is not enough holdover in the reticle to shoot that far. Let's say you choose ranges of 30 and 70...that will give you a REALLY good curve from 20-70+. You don't have to set more than that as the scope will figure it out for you. I hope that helps!

[@davidragland3535]

This truly helps a lot. I love the Forever return, no questions asked return policy & the great customer service (I've never contacted Garmin) changing my mind on what site to buy. I'm going with Burris Optics 100%. Thank you.

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

Thanks for choosing Burris! We're all obsessed with hunting and shooting so if we can help someone else in the same boat....all the better! Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@jordancler931]

Question. I shoot a 2022 PSE Levitate. It's 85lbs and I'm shooting a 550gn arrow about 307fps. Is that going to be out of the general recommended specs for initial sighting? Because you said it gives a general aiming point based on average 70lbs bows. This levitate is Screaming fast. Just wondering if I should aim a little lower to compensate for the speed and lack of trajectory curve????

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

No, the setup of the arrow profile will take this into consideration based on live feedback from previous shots. You'll need to aim dead on.

[@jordancler931]

@@BurrisOpticsCompany it came today so thank you so much for responding promptly. Have a great day. Please MAKE A 3RD GEN. DON'T STOP YOUR DESIGN IS FAR SUPERIOR TO ANYTHING ELSE OUT. Lighter, lower profile should be the objective. Amazong work guys. Just amazing

A little more detail showing the insertion of the laser pointer and also suggest the user remove the laser after adjustment

Thanks for the feedback Roger. I'll pass it along to our team who makes the videos so that we can add more info.

[@jordancler931]

How does this Auxiliary peep work? Never seen that before. Can you please explain?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

It attaches to the riser and sits between your string peep and the bow sight, acting as a third point of reference. This helps greatly with grip torque.

[@jordancler931]

@@BurrisOpticsCompany thanks for clclarifying. Wasn't sure if it's intent was to replace steing peep. As a Technician I couldn't see how that would be possible so THANK you for clarifying. That's a wonderful Idea. I designed a 3D printed Torque ring for scopes that ultimately offers better Torque reading as well. So I hope it will run concurrent with my unique set up on my Levitate or XF33. Thanks Burris

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

Very cool! Thanks again for choosing Burris. Let us know if we can help in any way.👍

[@woodmyster]

Can I raise the 20 yard pin higher? Also what’s the max range in the sight?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

The 20 yard pin is fixed and is the first of several points the Oracle uses to calculate the trajectory of your arrows. The maximum range of the laser is 200 yards on non-reflective, deer sized targets though your ability to stay in the sight is entirely dependent on the drop of your arrows.

[@dragonsmugla]

That answer is scary and makes me think it's not that far. Say using an IBO arrow at 70#, about what range is possible?

[@Kremit_the_Forg]

@@dragonsmugla You are not shooting anything at 200yds. As far as I know most archery hunts are within maybe 60yds? I know only a handfull of people in my area who can hit something repeatedly at 110yds (with a compoundbow) and even that is just hitting a mansized targed. Not giving the animal a clean shot. Olympians shoot at 76-76yds. If you want to test out the limits of archery, that's cool, but then this sight is maybe not the right thing.

[@BosleyBeats]

@@dragonsmugla yeah just as others have mentioned you’re not going to be shooting anything outside of 70 yards. My longest shot to kill was 72 yards. Other shots were within 30-42 yards.

[@rojamon2490]

Can you reset the settings? Like a factory reset?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

Yes! I'm glad you asked. The procedure works like an old school Mortal Kombat fatality. From normal operating mode, press the following buttons in order each within 2 seconds of each other or the unit will time out: Set, UP, DOWN, Menu, Trigger (PTT) After pressing the trigger the software will reset and you'll see the startup layout. It can be helpful to do this after a "range fault" displays because you'll see a layout change from the "ballistic dot" to the "startup state" with just the 20 yard LRF aiming dot lit.

[@NickSmallwoodNMLS-EpochLending]

Does memory reset when battery dies?

[@BurrisOpticsCompany]

No, it will hold the settings if the battery dies.

After sighting in do I remove the laser ?

@@BurrisOpticsCompany do I need to use that green circle 🟢 peep thats comes with this ? Or can I set it up with out it

Hello Brandon, I highly recommend using the peep sight. It will help minimize wrist torque, along with provide better alignment with the string peep and sight.

[@MrBlackgsxr750]

@@BurrisOpticsCompany so do I have to keep adjusting it down the further i shoot or should I set it between my shortest distance and farthest?

What you are looking for is it to be square/level with your 20 yard pin. You then use the holdover dot once you know that you are level.
