Help me decide

[Bouldar]

I want a scope for my 308 build.
1. 30 mm tube
2. SFP
3. 22 oz or less
4. MOA
5. $1500 or less
6. Want to dial elevation

I have been debating NF NXS 2.5-10x42 and Trijicon credo 2.5-15x42.
What do you think?

Those two would be my top picks.

Go with whichever reticle you like best.

I have two NXS 2.5-10x32 and I love them. I can’t imagine not enjoying a 2.5-10x42.

Those are both solid choices and agree with going with whatever reticle you like best. I really like the reticles on the Trijicons.

I have nightforce nxs and like them, just not the compact. The Trijicon is $400-500 less. To me, the reticle are pretty similar. I am just having a hard time justifying the extra money given the both seem to be well regarded in holding zero and tracking.

Not sure where you’re looking but the 2.5-15x42 Trijicons are under $1000 on Euro Optic and other online stores.

Sorry, said that backwards. The nightforce would be $400-500 more. I will fix that. Thanks.

The $4-500 difference in price would sure help me decide! That’s a lot of ammo
