From whatI have been able to find the reticles for the NXS and the BR scope are the same. And the erectors are suppose to be the same. In other words the erectors are both suppose to be good and tough. Why does the NXS have more internal elevation adjutment in the 8X32, over the BR 8X32??

I realize they have different "click" values. Is that the reason the BR has less internal adjustment?? Tom.
 
Re: NF Question

That is a good question. Looking at the specs, I'd say they have different internals.

Nearly every number is different. It is possible that they used the same erector tube, but the main body tube is definitely different. I'm no scope expert, but looking at the numbers, they are different altogether. I've had the 12-42BR in the past, and it is a completely different beast than the same NSX version.
 
Re: NF Question

I have been told the erectors are not the same and quite different. The NXS turrets are extremely well made you can even feel the difference. I have been told the glass is the some.
