I sent my 5.5-22X with MLR reticle in for the .1 mil adjustment/high speed/zero stop upgrade and was quoted 8 wks. That was 3 1/2 wks ago. I was contacted yesterday that is was ready to ship back to me. That's some good service there.

That's really good to hear! I was thinking about inquiring on upgrading to FFP
 
Re: Nightforce Upgrade Turn around Time

They don't offer an upgrade to FFP. They will change the turrets (to regular or highspeed mil or moa, with or without zerostop depending on the model) or change the reticle out. Price list is on their web site.
 
Re: Nightforce Upgrade Turn around Time

Wow, i thought the turn around time was closer to half a year for some reason, good to know!

Oh good news!!!!

I think they are asking about "upgrading" an SFP scope to FFP. Not a reticle swap in an F1.

Ahhhh. Understood. Yes, an SFP is not able to be converted to FFP.

Well get my hopes up, only to knock me down...
 
Re: Nightforce Upgrade Turn around Time

Upgraded my 5.5-22 to mil turrets with hi speed/ zero stop. Cost was 366 with shipping and got it back in 30 days. Very happy with service received from NF.

Man... same boat.
 
Re: Nightforce Upgrade Turn around Time


Its just not as simple as moving the reticle in the erector assembly. It is a completely different optical design.

Sorry guys. I misunderstood the earlier comment.
