    The gentleman I spoke too was friendly enough he almost makes me want to buy it through them just to show support. Originally lived in Ventura County (Simi Valley) but the Army moved me out to Colorado.

    Correct, I spoke with camerland yesterday and said that its not guaranteed but it looks around a month before some NXS's come in. As tempting as it is I can save a good chunk of money going through their military program. Kind of a trade off between getting the scope now vs waiting, I'm still on...

    New to hunting, first optic

    Ya I'm starting to realize that not one reticle is perfectly what I want. .

    New to hunting, first optic

    Do you own a credo, how do you like the reticle and does the full illumination bother you at all or the single red dot instead of intersecting lines?

    New to hunting, first optic

    Ya the Credo is in the race just wish they had a lower magnification range but isn't a deal breaker. Accupoint has the range I like might jut have to bite the bullet and use the reticle if I don't have time to uncap and dial. So far its Conquest V4, Credo/Accupoint, are the front runners. I...

    New to hunting, first optic

    Brought down my magnification range since most of the scopes that I am looking at are SFP and don't need x16+ for 300/400 yard shots. I like the magnification range of the Trijicon Accupoint 2.5-12.5 only downside is that the turrets are not exposed, mainly wanting elevation for dialing. I...

    New to hunting, first optic

    Thank you, I actually have been in contact with Erik and he has been pretty responsive to my emails. Only issue is it seems that most of the R1/2 have capper elevation turrets. Besides aftermarket turrets does meopta offer the ability to swap out capped to exposed elevation turrets?

    Leupold VX5HD vs. Zeiss V4 vs. Trijicon Credo HX

    You think the x16 is too much for mid range hunting? I like the zeiss but wish they had a 2-12. How do you like that reticle? I was going to get the t30 or zmoai for simplicity and didn’t know if the thin smaller stand alone crosshair was hard to pick up.

    Spoke with NF and nxs compact is 8 months backordered. Might not be an option for next season. Looked into the shv and it’s on the heavy side. Looks like trijicon and ZEISS are still the front runners. Found accupoint that’s 2.5-12 but all the turrets are capped which kind of sucks.

    I keep reading that x9/10 scopes are more than enough for 500 yard shots. I haven’t been able to look through a scope at that range so don’t know what an elk/deer looks like at that range. Is that enough magnification for antelope too? I know it’s kind of different sceneries with wooded long...

    Hmmm the guys I have talked to who hunt around d here have told me so many different things. I asked them what range is average for elk and deer and they have said they have taken animals from 70 yards all the way out to 600. I’m limiting myself to 500 yards. The older guy who took an elk at 600...

    How far are you expecting to shoot?

    I was originally going to go with a VX5 but after some reading it seems vortex/leupold are hit or miss or quality and longevity.

    What has me second guessing the higher magnification is SFP and multiple people saying “I take elk/deer at 500 yards with x9” everyone’s results vary but I don’t want extra magnification if I don’t need it and can dial to max so I can use the reticle.

    Riflescope Help

    Damn you guys I was set on what scopes I was looking at now you throw in NF. How does the SHV stack up to say a trijicon, ziess, nxs 2-10? New to hunting so magnification is a rabbit hole I’ve been going down. I can get a credo HX, conquest V4, and SHV around the same price. But unsure about...

    Only downside is some of the optics I was looking at don't come in that lower range. Trijicon makes a 2.5-12.5 which might cover all the bases.

    So would it be safe to say that if you plan to shoot 300-500 yards x12 would be significant? Ill be hunting mainly in Colorado so some wooded areas but also open mountain sides. I know this probably comes down to personal preference its just hard since most of the places around me don't carry...

    Not to change the subject but how far out are you able to see clearly with just x12? I'm in the market for my first longer range hunting scope on my 300 win mag and it was suggested to me to get a x16 or higher. I only plan to shoot out to 500 yards, just my personal comfort distance. I'm new...

    Not to hijack or change the subject but how do you like the accupoint? I'm torn between Zeiss and Trijicon for my new rifle. Specifically Accupoint/ Credo HX vs. Conquest V4

    Leupold VX5HD vs. Zeiss V4 vs. Trijicon Credo HX

    I’m in the same boat with the same optics. I can’t decide between the v4 or credo HX/ accupoint. I wanted the zmoai but seems to be sold out everywhere but I found t30. The credo’s reticle seems to be similar to the t30. I plan to shoot the same distances as you and hunt literally the same...
