Gentleman, I just acquired a GAP Gladius. What would you guys recommend in terms of glass? I've got a $2000 budget. I currently own a NF 2.5-10x24 but will consider y'all's recomendations
Thanks guys

Rifle Scopes GAP Gladius Optic Recomendations

Nightforce F1 3.5-15x, Leupold Mark 6 3-18x44 TMR, Nightforce 2.5-10x42, Vortex Razor 5-20x.
Make sure you get the .1 mRad knobs and an mRad reticle. Don't mix MOA and mRad and you'll be good to go.
You need to decide if you want FFP or not. Personally, on a nice light handy rifle like the Gladius, I'd lean to the lighter options and stick with a FFP because you're shooting a tactical rifle, not an F-Class rifle. Of those listed I'd lean toward the Mark 6 or the Razor.

The Vortex Razor is a really slick scope in your price range. Of course with a $2000 budget you could find a used USO or S&B.
Just outside that budget is the ATACR or just inside is the Razor. I have both and are two excellent scopes, but if SFP is not an issue I give every catagory to the ATACR hence the save 2-300 more and go with NF. A used USO would also be an option, and I have had a few over the years but right now my de facto go to is the ATACR.

I like that new nightforce lowlight put on his. It's in his video review. Think it's the 2.5-10x40
I tried Hensoldt 4-16, Hensoldt 3-12, SB 4-16 and NF F1 on my Gladius. The 30mm tube with 0.82" Seekins gave the lowest sightline (0.10" lower than 34mm tube in 0.92" Seekins).
Something about the scope weight, profile and size just felt right on the Gladius since it's a fairly small/light gun.

I agree with the guys pulling for the Mark 6. Keep the weight down as much as possible.
