    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    "Chubby" is relative in this case. Compared to the LHT 4.5-22 which was designed to be a super lightweight FFP option, yes, but compared to the rest of the market it is about on par and maybe a wee bit lighter than most for a 34mm tube, 44mm objective and 6x erector (assuming all those hold...

    Rifle Scopes Zco 2-10 experiences? Please post here.

    Anyone know if this guy is on the Hide? I’ve seen a lot of yahoo’s on youtube but I found his style of reviewing and shooting and real world observations to be beneficial. Great job I felt. Glad to see the MPVO finally getting the coverage it deserves.

    Keep waiting to see the Primary arms 2.5-20 or just get NF 4-16

    "A bird in the hand..." 🤷‍♂️ The PA (2.5-20) is a brand new design, sometimes they have early issues (e.g. NF NX8) so keep that in mind. I'm not sure the PA name is strong enough yet to dethrone NF NX8 series which even though they are different designs it is what most people will compare. I...

    Rifle Scopes Atacr gen 2

    Since you have both (NF and ZCO 4-20) have you compared both at 4x for FOV? I realize that NF numbers are less than ZCO but would be curious real-world experience, does the ZCO feel like it is a lot wider at 4x or not so much? And then how about at 20x, same thing, FOV comparison and initial...

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    I have not encountered the same with my 4.5-28. I suppose we all have different experiences but I find the 4.5-28 to be pretty forgiving, does it get tighter above 20x certainly as almost any scope will (as you increase magnification) but "practically useless" is not what I would call it.

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    Not necessarily, there are multiple factors that contribute to tight eyebox, but saying one model from a manufacturer means another model (even in the same line) isn't fair as every scope has its own unique optical formula. The 4.5-28 uses a 6.2x erector while the 5-42x uses an 8.4x erector...

    Rifle Scopes Atacr gen 2

    Well, plenty of other manufacturers have come out with new scopes and while they may be popular it does not appear to affect NF's ability to continue to sell their older products. Heck, look at all the great 3-18 scopes that have come out since the ATACR 4-16x42 and yet that one scope continues...

    Rifle Scopes Alpha Class High Magnification 6-36/7-35 FFP Scope Review

    Not all glass is equal, even from Schott. Schott has many different "formulas" for different grades of glass.

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    It was a joke that could have multiple meanings depending on how you look at it, because I know Richard I thought he would find it amusing... :LOL:

    Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition

    Wow, this thread has taken some twists and turns. A few comments after reading through some... Actually, some people do cry about Richard, they just do so behind closed doors... :sneaky: I know there have been some responses to this already but speaking from personal experience, the Gen 1 had...

    Rifle Scopes Atacr gen 2

    On the whole ATACR II front. Yes, the ATACR series is one of the "oldest" scope lines on the market today and I would love to see some fresh updates; however, as long as the scopes are still making NF money I doubt they feel any pressure to update. Also, NF has been one of the few companies...

    That sounds about right to me. I was at Schmidt and Bender the other day and they have a countdown clock :ROFLMAO:

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    I would expect the latter... it's more about the quality of the parts and assembly that play a bigger role than the size of the parts.

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    Still crickets on the 2.5-20x48??? Interesting, I'm not used to seeing PA take this long to come to market with products they announce, they are usually pretty quick.

    Best Premium Hunting Scope

    The only reason I would choose the S&B is if it had DT II+ turrets and I felt I needed 3x at the bottom (though the Schmidt reticles aren't that great for bottom mag use). If I didn't need 3x then I would choose the ZCO. That's me, there are plenty who prefer the Schmidt over ZCO so YMMV...
