SHOT show 2026. New scopes ?

[Chris in TN]

I'm still stuck on MOA, but I haven't seen the MOA-C or the new one they have on the 2-12 F1. Might be decent in the woods if it's like their other LVPO reticles.

I like the basic concept but still don't want even 20moa of windage.

Search link only brings up NX-8 models for me.

All the nx6 products were taken down, looked at them 3 hours ago.

Probably a tad premature if I had to guess. Good thing the Internet never forgets.

Sorry I'm late to the party.

The 2-12 NX6 F1 specs looked nice till the reticle.

Seriously I get the PRS crowd wants stuff like that but why can't they ALSO offer a better hunting option too?

I’m disappointed in these new NX6’s. was hoping for something more useful in the field to be available out of 25 new scopes that span 1x to 36x. With the 4-24 they don’t offer mils at all or FFP. So they’re offering these new easy to dial easy to zero turrets but in a 4-24 you’re supposed to only dial at 24x? And you’d be dialing 21 & 3/4 MOA for a 1000 yd shot? What’s the thinking?
2-12 has a ridiculous tree reticle. Does not fit the average intended purpose of a 2-12. I don’t see a single reticle that looks like it will be useful at low magnification. I would’ve been happy with a 2-12 or 3-18 with Mil-R reticle. Looks like the only ones I would consider are with Mil-C. I may look elsewhere.

Isn’t the RokScope supposed to make an appearance at Shot Show?

That would be great - love seeing products driven by community input.

edit: sounds like still in early prototype phase.

Maybe not a formal appearance ... but it's possibly the only thing I'd personally want to see there.

So much that I've considered dressing up as Borat, rushing that ginger troll Mushaney @Unknown Munitions, shouting "My name-a Borat. I love-a you people!" and shoving some coke stolen from the night before's Vortex party up his nose before making off with the prototype.

Where's the beef ?!

 

[cole96]

ZCO is releasing a scope. I think a few of the top brands are. Curious to see which day

Same, hopefully some good stuff

Trijicon Credo 2-10x36 FFP w/ Red MRAD Precision Tree, 30mm, Matte Black Riflescope​

I have a couple of them, but wouldn’t call them light, and that reticle definitely has “a few hash marks” . I think he was looking for something like the maven 2-10, only with a simple mil reticle (has a simple MOA based reticle) and mil turret instead of MOA. Hand one of those as well, wish it would reliably hold zero.

Is nightforce that much better than the competition? I have yet to use one but keep hearing good things.

Oh, I agree completely. That’s why I’ve said a mini Christmas tree with 10moa is more than enough.

I just see elevation hashes as being more useful than the 10-20-30moa of windage. There’s at least a chance I might use 4-6moa (half of what I’m suggesting) elevation in a hurry. No chance I’ll use 15moa of windage (half of the 30moa some scopes have), ever.

The exception: I have an old vortex viper pst 4-16 on a .22lr now. Sometimes I’ll use the reticle hashes because it can’t get to 300 or 330 yards otherwise. Those are my longest .22lr shots. But that’s really outside of the discussion here. An irrelevant outlier, I guess.

Truth be told, the vast majority of available reticles are optimized for shooting long range 22lr in hurricane force winds.

It's mostly their track record for durability and zero retention. Their optical quality is good too from my samples.

I'm buying an S&B Polar unless someone announces something with a light transmission of 96% or greater at SHOT.
