Looking for an optic for a semi auto KAC SR 25 and keep coming back to the Nightforce F1; can it be beat when considering how it holds up, its weight and size, as well as the clarity/mechanical quality?
I have 2 other NF's and know they can take me dragging them around outside and the glass is good. FFP is a must as I almost always hold, and the 15x high end is fine for a 308 especially given the jump in weight when you start going over it. The only other thing that comes to mind is that there is supposed to be a new Steiner 3-15 T5xi coming out this year I may want to wait for but am worried that it'll weight a ton like the Steiners tend to do. I also want to stay away from 'too much scope' and would rather go smaller than bigger.
Any other suggestions while I kick this around to make sure I end up getting what I need the first go around?
