Nightforce NX8 2.5-20x50 Mil-XT Riflescope C632

Memoirs of a Nightforce newbie: Be sure to read instructions thoroughly for the Zero Stop, and bring the small Nightforce tool in addition to an allen key for initial adjustments. Eye-relief is extremely forgiving at 2.5x. With the reticle illuminated on 2.5x the NX8 creates a nice reference point in daytime conditions (the reticle illumination takes a couple minutes to figure out, but once you've played with it for a while it's intuitive enough). At higher magnifications the eye relief gets a little tighter, but not to the degree I'd consider it any kind of hindrance. Image is sharp across the spectrum compared to similar offerings from other manufacturers, and the reticle is extremely crisp/ easy to use. I was able to accurately and reliably mil a target from well over a kilometer in the late evening with small spots of fog rolling in. Granted, it was a man sized bit of OSB board with an e-type target stapled on, but the reticle works. Included throw lever and caps are a classy touch, and the capped windage is a good encouragement to utilize their reticle when accounting for wind. Overall, what a fun optic for rapid target engagement.

Amazing glass for the money, super bright hard to believe its a 30mm tube. Highly recommend
