    Great info, thanks. What issues did they have to fix on your nx8s?

    Nightforce atacr 4-16x42 vs NX8 4-32 for long range hunting

    That’s great insight, especially about the eyepiece. I don’t like when they move together either. I’ve owned a few nxs in the past and always wished the diopter was separate.

    Nightforce atacr 4-16x42 vs NX8 4-32 for long range hunting

    Price difference aside which scope are you choosing and why for a long range hunting rifle? Magnification is obviously quite different, but these two scopes are within an ounce of each other. The atacr supposedly has a much better eye box and better glass/light transmission. Zero lock turret is...

    Nightforce NX8 2.5-20f1 versus 4-32 f1

    Is the entire reticle illuminated or is it just the center?

    Nightforce NX8 2.5-20f1 versus 4-32 f1

    Last question, has anyone here used the new moa-xt reticle? I don’t really care about the Christmas tree, but the floating center dot is superior to the moar reticle in my opinion. Just wish the moar had a floating center lol.

    Nightforce NX8 2.5-20f1 versus 4-32 f1

    That’s perfect, great to hear. I also just realized that the two scopes are within a half ounce of each other. That makes the 4-32 a no brainer.

    Nightforce NX8 2.5-20f1 versus 4-32 f1

    Good to know, must be an optical elusion on my part. I’ve never looked through a nightforce ffp, just some of the older vortex and then the Leupold mark 5 that I’m currently using.

    Nightforce NX8 2.5-20f1 versus 4-32 f1

    Just wondering if it’s too big and clunky to get a precise hold at 20x. Seems like most first formal plane reticles have a sweet spot for a magnification range where the reticle is very visible but not so big it’s useless.

    Nightforce NX8 2.5-20f1 versus 4-32 f1

    I’m in the market for one of these scopes. I’m fine with either, just want one that has the most usable reticle. I’d likely get the moar reticle. Curious where the usable reticle range is for each scope. I can’t imagine the reticle is usable at all at 32 power nor do I ever imagine needing to...

    Custom Carbon Fiber Stock

    Solid handy work right there!! My preference would be to ditch the Monte Carlo cheek piece. I also have small hands so prefer the bottom of the grip to be chopped to match the bottom of the stock. When I shoot off the bench all that extra grip has ever done for me is smack my other hand when the...

    ATF Proposed Powder Reporting Rule

    Pretty dumb, hopefully it gets shot down. What’s going to suck is all the panic buying that will commence. All they guys stocking up that have never used up an 8lb jug in their life. Just when stuff was starting to become available again.

    Sub par results with initial 26 nosler loads. What should I try next?

    What others have said. Clean your barrel when switching to monos or switching back to cup and core. I’ve had good results with og accubonds but the ablr are super finicky. 26 nos with a mono bullet is a killing machine. As others have said, change powders if possible, if not change bullets. The...

    Suppressor Causing Groups to Grow

    As others have said nodes don’t exist and dropping a charge won’t change things. Swapping powders and bullets are what make a difference with a rifle. You also need a consistent bullet release. Similar to the results with the barnes I would try a few different bullets. Your rifle does not like...
