Optics?

I started with a Vortex PST Gen 2 5 x 25 ebr-2c reticle which I like. But now that I have upgraded to a Nightforce atacr F1 7 by 35 mil XT reticle it works great Off the Bench and also clear and bright enough for ELR
Oh I forgot to put in that I have not tried a sightron scope but I have not read anything bad about them either
I run a Sightron scope for my field target rifle. That format sets targets at unknown distances and requires very precise marksmanship. The parallax on my scope is spot on with little slop. I can see where that feature would not be ideal for NRL shooting. I'm unable to transition from a 50 to a 75-yard target without changing my parallax. The image would be far too blurry.
As far as NRL, not many people I shoot with are familiar with them. They tend to follow the pack and buy Argos or Vortex without looking at other (usually better) options. I would definitely suggest a Sightron to anyone looking for a high-end optic.

I have 2 Sightron SII 36X's (one of them a now-discontinued Big Sky), and 3 Weaver T-36's. They are all excellent scopes, but sadly Weaver is no more. Optically, I see no difference between the Weaver and the Sightron, but I don't like the numbering system on the turrets Weaver went to a few years ago (numbered 0-4.5 then back to 0 instead of 0-9). Hard to beat Sightron.
