Re: Nikon Monarch X scope?
I did not know they are Mil/Mil now.
I do have a 2.5x10 IllRet MilDot that is absolutely fantastic. Very clear and bright glass. Has never given me a problem.
I actually just got a PST 4x16 three days ago and was suprised how much the glass stunk compared to the Nikon Tacticals.

Re: Nikon Monarch X scope?
If they would (or did) go Mil/Mil (or MOA/MOA) they would get very popular.
Mine has suburb glass and excellent tracking. And so far 5 years of twisting the turrets and not a problem yet.

Re: Nikon Monarch X scope?
Barton Hege,
That’s not mil/mil, the adjustments are 1/4 moa.
To the op,
I have two Nikon tacticals they are head and shoulders above every comparable mk4 I have owned. If you can confirm the mil/mil I would sure like to know where I could find them.

Re: Nikon Monarch X scope?
I have the Monarch X 4-16 and its a great piece of glass. Yes its 1/4 moa with either 80 or 50moa depending on model. Check on the Spot On software you can use with the Mildot.

Re: Nikon Monarch X scope?
i have one of these scopes.
the glass is excellent and the mildots are crisp.
the 4-16x50 does lack elevation range so beware of that.
the knobs are large and have a good feel to them.
also, yes, the reticule is mil-dot but the turrets are based in moa.
i don't know why manufacturers do this - but it is what it is.
i now own a luepold 8.5-25x50 tmr/mil and it's so much easier to use if everything is calibrated in either mils or moa's.
anyway, like i said, the elevation on the monarch-x is only 50moa which really is not enough imo.
here is a review of the monarch-X 2.5-10 but they do mention the same thing i said about elevation for the 4-16x:

enjoy. it's a good medium range scope but lacks the elevation if you plan for shotting your rifle at it's maxumum range, even with a 20moa base.

Re: Nikon Monarch X scope?
Thanks for posting a link to the write up on the MONARCH X Scope. Honestly I have not found anyone who has one that is not throughly pleased. As for not enough elevation, the reviewer discussed " a good amount of up elevation" in the write up and said 1200 yards would not be out of the question with the right shooter. That is with the 2.5-10 and not the 4-16.
