Hey Guys,

After some disappointing results with cheaper optics, I'm looking to put a new scope on my 6.5x47. I have my eye on a Razor 4.5-27 but want to see if there's anything else out there I should be looking at.

2K max price
Mil/Mil
I shoot targets and steel from 50-1000
I don't compete yet...
The scope doesn't have to be feature rich, basically I want something that tracks reliably and has a solid/simple reticle.
I'm not against spending less if there's a "less featured" scope that has good glass.

Let me know your thoughts.
 
The Nightforce NX8 4-32 Mil-XT is also a good option in that price range :)
PM me your number if you're interested in one of us going over the options and help you pick the right scope for your application.

I’m looking hard at a 2.5-20 NX8 for my 6.5 Creedmoor. Similar wants/needs too. That or wait for a kahles k318i used and go that route

Got one 6.5x47 chunk wearing a 5.5-22x50 nxs with mil-r, very nice for $1350 used. And my other which is a bit lighter has an Atacr 4-16, like new for $1800. Keep an eye open on the classifieds and score a used night force. Love them on my Lapuas. This if you don't go new from CSTactical.
 
Nx8 2.5-20 is going to be awesome for what you are trying to set-up, it weighs less than the razor, had awesome glass and clarity for distance shooting. First focal plane, good selection of reticles as well for mrad. Shoot me a message if you got any questions! Happy to assist!
 

You said you weren’t opposed to spending less. The bushnell LRTS series has proven reliable in our shooting circle and has good glass for the price. Camera land has very good prices on them right now. Several friends have bought them recently and I’ve used one for 3 years without issue.
We just got a shipment of G3 FDE and G3 Black Illuminated 4.5-18's. Call for special pricing 516-217-1000 :)
