... a target scope that isn't so heavy that it is a limiting factor on your builds?
Seriously, the NXS and BR versions 8-32 and 12-42 of the NF are at least a half a pound too heavy. That is weight that I can use in my barrel and/or stock.
I'd also think a couple of changes would be nice/helpful:
Lose the illumination, we're shooting targets on a rectangular field in daylight. Might save a buck (or a couple of hundred) and should be able to shave a few oz.
More elevation, both the NSX and the BR are sorely limited. Is it doable in the current configuration?
Some people like the side parallax, I'm fine with the parallax on the obj like on my 32BR, and I think that saves weight anyway, as I understand it the obj parallax does reduce the lenses by one. Should = better light less weight. Once I set it I never change it on the line (as long as I remember to set it)
