Rifle Scopes Nightforce or Leupold Mark 4 for M-14?

[akjaeger]

I want to put a better scope on a LRB M-25.
Either a Leupold 2.5-8x36 Mark 4 MR/T 30mm, illum TMR (stock #LEU 67915)
or Leupold 3.5-10x40 Mark 4 LR/T 30mm Riflescope
Stock # - LEU110074
FFP, TMR, M-5 knobs
Or Nightforce Optics NXS Compact 2.5-10x32mm with the NP-R2 reticle.
I'm leaning towards the night force or the 2.5 X8 Leupold because of the greater range of adjusment. The LRB M-25 doesn't lend itself to a canted base and I'll run out of adjusment before 800 yds with the 3.5 X10. I've had a lot of good luck with Leupolds in the past, but have heard good things about the nightforce.
What do you guys reccomend?
Thanks,
Brent

I'd go with the NF for sure.

The NF will never fail you, no matter how you treat it.

I don't have either but would pick the Nightforce.

I like my Leupolds but I love my NF.

NF offers ZeroStop, does the Leupold?

I ordered the Nightforce 2.5X10X32 with the NP-R2 reticle, 1/4 MOA knobs and zero stop today!

Nightforce blows the shit out the MK4. For an M1a though, I don't think you need to throw a ton of wood on a scope if you don't have to. But if price wasn't a concern, by all means go with an NXS. You will love it.
