I'm having trouble deciding between the 8/32 or the 5/22. Is the 8/32 overkill? Which would you all choose?

It really has a lot to do with what you are going to use it for. What is your main interest?

I'm going for long range. I have a R700P in 300win mag and I would like to see how far I can push it.

5.5-22 is plenty for most applications. I have one 8-32 scope, and most of the time, I shoot on the lowest setting, as I seem to do with most of my scopes anymore. The Nightforce scopes have thin crosshairs also, so you don't have to worry about obsturcting your target if it is faily small, thus you really don't need the extra magnification.

MOA Milradian are just measures of angles, MOA is a finer adjustment, but Mils are uniform across the world, every military snipers in the free world is trained in Mils, both work, both can be used to great effect, but IMHO Mils is an easier system to work with.

Re: Help me choose my nightforce
An 8x32 is very specialized.
Can you live with the 8 power at the low end?
If your new to the game you most likely are not going to go directly to 1500 yards so try something that should work and most likely if you change your mind someone on the forum would gladly buy.
So how about a...
5.5x22x56 MLR Mil nobs with zero stop
I really like mine and would like to buy yours if you do not like it at a discount.
