Nightforce NX6 Lineup

[199p]

One think im waiting to see if if they slimline the scopes, i have an nx8 but its so bulky i dont take it very much because a lot of the slip hunting i do the turrets snag on everthing.

Im also hoping the 3-18 has low profile turrets and a smaller overall frame compared to the nx8

Somehow I have a hard time believing they're going to cater anything to the hunting crowd. We'll see in a couple days, I guess.

Someone mentioned this earlier, I would like to see a 'baby ATACR 4-16x'. Essentially the same glass but w/ 30mm tube and ~25oz - if that's even possible...

The SHV line literally stands for Shooter, Hunter, Varmiter. It’s going away along with the NXS so I’d venture to guess they are being consolidated into something like the Trijicon Credo/Credo HX

And a non-rotating ocular.

That was me. If they went to 30mm format, they could easily hit 27. 25oz would need some titanium or maybe a switch to 7075 from 6061 so they could thin out the tube. It could be done, they would just have to be convinced of the demand.

Definitely...

You do realize there is a significant downside to packing hi zoom erectors into compact scope tubes?

And a non-rotating ocular.

That’s one of the best parts

Grab it and spin

No looking or feeling for the ring, or stupid throw levers.
