I see Nightforce will have a "lower price" probably lesser quality 4-14 this year sometime, but I think I really want a bit of extra magnification.
Because of this, the 5.5-22x50 is reduced to about $1,600
Can anyone think of any reason I should buy the 5.5-25x56 over the 5.5-22x50 ?
I'm thinking I'd rather have the 50mm (likely in mil-dot)
I'll be shooting .308 medium range, paper, steel and occasional hunt with it.
I realize I could get to the .308's max range with less, but my eyesight isn't what it was, and I have the money "now"
Any thoughts appreciated.
