Rifle Scopes scope needed for my gap-10

[mike1113]

my gap-10 in 6.5 creed should be coming in in the next 30 days and I don't have a scope yet. I'm looking at 2 different scopes . I need some help picking the better one. I am looking at the razor gen 2 4.5-27x56 and the Nightforce ATACR. I don't know much about Nightforce . need some help guys. If you have any more suggestions let me know. Want to stay around $2400-$2500 range

I do have a few nightforce nxs and at this time 1 atacr moar I will be soon adding anouther atacr moar t to the lot I personally have not had a chance to use a razor gen 1 or 2 but I am extremely satisfied with what I have. I do have a few vortex 6-24 pst's and for the money they are more than adequate and have not had any problems or expected any though there has been some with every brand in use always a few get past quality control. When you settle on the one you want to go with the vendors here on the hide can hook you up with a great deal. Mike

FFP vs. Second FP...

Haven't been shooting long enough to have a preference on that. Which would be better for hunting.

Just put a SWFA SS 5-20x50 HD illuminated on my POF P308 and couldnt be happier. Got a smoking deal on it off another Hide member. For the money its a great scope with excellent reviews.

I prefer. First focal planes. Especially for hunting. Your holds are always the same and requires no thinking about zoom just range and shoot

 

[HOOFER]

Vortex hs lr. Or PST if you require illum. I also have an bushy elr and a swfa 5-20 all are great glass. All are. FFP. Can't go wrong with those 3. Prices range from 800-1400

That is going to be a very heavy hunting rifle, especially with the 4.5-27x on top. I run a 3.5-15x F1 on mine.

 

[HOOFER]

Yeah true. My 22" 260 weighs much more than my 25 1/2 7mm both m40 contour both mcmillian adjustable a5s. The bushy is some hefty glass. I have the vortex HS-LR 4-16x50 FFP with the XLR reticle and I have to say. As far as clarity. Weight and a good holdover reticle. Its very nice for 800ish. If you don't mind the busy christmas tree type reticle.

A nightforce F1 would be hard to beat for that rifle. I have seen some pretty good deals on the used market.
