Rifle Scopes NightForce or USO?

#51
Re: NightForce or USO?

Anyone know if USO can do TPAL with left side windage? I am thinking about an order I want to place soon and the 37mm 1.8-10x TPAL looks like what I may want, although an ERGO is not a very far reach with the short 10x body. I do want left side windage on the next one since it is much more convenient than right side.

Leaning toward T-Pal... just wish the 1.8-10 SN-3 came with the option of T-Pal since I intend on buying one at a later date and would like everything the same

Pretty sure it can, since LL has a video review of one up on the main site page. Thinking an exact copy would be great on my "precision" AR, if money were no issue. Guess I'll have to wait on that, though!

USO has all kinds of options for all their scopes that they don't list. You just have to ask.

Well, that's really good to know! Looks like T-Pal it is!

I'm not a fan of having to reach all the way up to the object to adjust parallax

I remember a thread no so long ago where someone said that they wished USO offered the TPAL on the ST10, in stead of just ERGO. No kidding, John hopped on, said no problem, and quoted a base price for a fixed 10x with TPAL. I believe he also said they could do it in 17x, 22x, and 25x, but don't quote me on it, I don't remember exactly.

There are a TON of options that aren't even on their web page (which to be totally honest, is in need of an overhaul).

I used to really want a FFP, but I have looked through several USO's and I own a NF. I will stick with the NF's for now because i cant tell any difference in clarity. Also for 1k yards I like the 2nd focal plane for the really fine reticle, no thicker cross hairs for those smaller targets to hide behind.

actually my friend, i am "SOMEBODY" just fucking with ya'll, don't get so riled and upset, it's just the internet where folks go to pass the time and have fun, looking for information and advice, which this site is really good for, so mellow out my fellow patriots and enjoy rather than get your hackles up.., OK ??

ooooh ! BTW it's "none other" OK ??

No way bro, NOBODY makes sense, and if he said he had something there'd be pics of it in spades if anyone doubted him. Pete, well....you can look into the history on that.

Re: NightForce or USO?

I appreciate all the comments on this post. I was going to ask the same question about the USO 3.2-17 TPAL. I have a NF that I really like and am in the market for another, but I think I am just going to have to go with the USO given all the positive comments for a build that GAP is just finishing up for me.

Re: NightForce or USO?

I've pretty much decided on the USO 3.2-17x44 T-PAL w/ US#4 (mini EREK) and milestone... #3 100 click windage.

But I have the SN-4S I need to get ordered first... I'm going to spend WAYYYYY to much money :-D

What the heck is the US#4 dial now? USO has so many options and not all of them are listed on their website. It is mind boggling...

there a great optic!!!! </div></div>

so are NFs....this one kept on working as well.
The hole you see in the well-used Nightforce 3.5-15x50 NXS scope at right was made by an enemy 7.62x39 round fired at a U.S. soldier. The bullet completely penetrated the erector tube - the heart of the scope's optical system. We’re happy to report that the soldier was not injured, and the only casualty is the scope's magnification ring, frozen on 15x. Its focus, tracking, and all other functions work just fine. It holds point of aim like new. The soldier wrapped the scope in duct tape to keep out sand and dirt, and used it without a problem for the next three days, completing his mission.

I hope my USO never gets shot.

If it were a USO, it wouldn't have penetrated the tube like it did on that paper thin NF tube...






I kid, I kid... Calm down NF guys... LOL

JRose you best watch your back, the NF police is coming to get you.

Crazy shot, and somewhat a lucky shot also on that NF... If it shot out any of the glass elements then the scope would be kaput I think.
