So I tracked down the UPS man in town today since my scope was to be delivered today and no one would be there to sign for it. Man what a nice optic, granted I'm upgrading from my fixed 16 power Super Sniper (nice scope for the money). I'm glad I decided to go with it as it seems very nicely made with nice glass, very nice turrets, and it's pretty easy on the eyes too! I went with the NP-R1 reticle which was suggested to me by Bill at EDM ARMS. The only thing I don't really care for is how the illumination brightness is adjusted. Not exactly the most convienent but it's a feature that will get rarely used so it's pretty much a non issue. I also highly recommend Euro Optic, first class all the way. I'll get some pictures on here withing the next few days. Now if only my damn rifle would arrive.....

You're right concerning illumination in both ways. It is slightly inconvenient and you'll probably never use it anyway.

Love mine; after experimenting with several other scopes I've come to the conclusion that the NF does everything I need and represents the best value for what I do.
