Rifle Scopes My Nightforce doesn't track

[Juanjo322]

Guys, I have a nightforce NXS non HST 5.5-22x50 with NP-R2 and it doesn't track.. I took my rifle out to 100meters and it was a about 1/2 high, which is ok, then moved to the 500meters dialed about 13 minutes and shot and the bullet fell about 60-80 meters before the target.. moved 6 more minutes and still hitting low. Then I raised up 6.5 lines on this reticle and it seems to have compensated. With this reticle being 2MOA Hash marks this leads me to believe that the optic didn't move at all with the turret adjustment. I could still hear the clicks on the scope but it doesn't seem to have moved at all... what could this be?

Please advise.

The mechanics inside the turret could have failed. I would send it in to Nightforce and let them diagnose the issue with your scope. Don't monkey with it and booger it up even more.

The people at Nightforce have been very helpful on the few occasions that I did need to get something fixed.

While that would really be a bummer I am glad it's not the only scope I have.. I don't think I could be that patient..


There's nothing like Schmidt & Bender..
