Rifle Scopes Minox ZP5, Nightforce ATACR or...

[KALISPIMENTA]

So getting to that time to pull a trigger on a new scope.
I can get my hands on a used Nightforce ATACR 7-35x56 F1 - Tremor3 for the same as a Minox ZP5 5-25x56 MR4.
My question is for around $3000 are these solid choices which one should I choose or are there other choices around the same price? Thank you!

Pick the reticle you prefer between those awesome scopes IMO, I prefer the MR4 personally over the T3 and we have Minox ZP5 MR4's in stock right now

The mr4 is a lot less cluttered and I think easier to use and easier to spot impacts. I have no expiersnce with a 7-35 atacr but just sold a 5-25 with h59 which is very similar to the tremor 3. If you are shooting elr than maybe the 35 power zoom will be needed but in my opinion that is a little too much for me. I think either way you will be happy though. I got my minox mr4 from cs tactical and was thrilled with their service.

Thank you Sir! Again, let me know if you need more assistance in the future.

Both good choices. I think Minox has the best optics / glass / image resolution of any scope. I use both the NF and the Minox. We sell both. The 7-35x is a very strong seller, and the big attraction, other than going out to 35x (which I feel very few people will use) is that it focuses down to 10m. It is a better engineered scope, and more durable if you are going to war. Otherwise, the Minox wins. Like a couple others here, we also have the Minox in stock and that reticle is supurb.

As to any other scope you are missing out on around $3,000... There are some S&B 5-25 scopes, for sure around that range. I am not fond of the ones that are hundreds less. Kahles is worth consideration. Kahles and Minox have an ever slight edge on NF and S&B, in my opinion, if you are target shooting. The new Kahles 525 is awesome. We just got a very clean 624i SKM3 in today in trade that is very sweet, and bargain priced. I would not open up the gates to much more. Evaluate the used 7-35x, Minox, and Kahles, in both 525 and 624 used. If you are still undecided, we should look at S&B options.
