Optic for Wife’s rifle

[deadly0311]

I’ll preface this post by saying she currently has an ATACR 4-16x42. Her rifle will get shot 5-6 times a year, mostly hunting situations but she’ll shoot a couple matches with me throughout the year. I’m leaning heavily towards the Nightforce NX8 4-32 Mil C.

Her wants/must haves:
Mil/Mil
Lighter weight
At least 25 power on the top end


Is there anything out there around that NX8 price range and performance that I’m not thinking of?

Eyebox sensative, parallax constantly needs tweaked, I don't see the nx8 as a good prs scope, at all. I own a few so I'm speaking theoretically. The mk5hd 5-25 is a good scope, trijicon temmile, cronus btr, ares etr, xtr3, all good choices with more forgiveness.

Kahles K525i or K624i gets my vote. She will be blown away by the glass quality. Unfortunately, for your wallet...She'll want more of these scopes, and so will you. Once you go Kahles, it's hard to go back... I still rock an old capped-turret Kahles Helia KX 3.5-10x50 4D-Dot 1" tube on my main deer rifle. It's super light, super clear, super crisp, and the glass won't be beat.

I’ve got the itch to grab one of these, I like the look of the PR2-mil reticle, simple uncluttered tree. I just ordered a MK5 3.6-18x44 to throw on top of my MK12 Mod 0, if the glass is good a 5-25 or 7-35 is next.

OP, if you end up looking at the Leupold’s check out Liberty Optics, they gave me a smoking price on the MK5 I picked up.

NEW! Mark 5 HD scopes!! ALL GONE! SO LONG LEUPOLD!!

Pick up a Mark 5HD™ and you’ll feel the difference: it’s up to 20 ounces lighter than other scopes in its class. Get behind one and you’ll see the difference, from the superior edge-to-edge clarity and extreme low-light performance, to the versatility of the Combat Competition Hunter reticle...
