I have a 300win mag build in the works and need help for a scope. I prefer SFP and moa. I see a lot of positive stuff on the x5. Do you guys prefer the nightforce or the swaro?
 
I don't have an NXS so can't compare them. I have a couple X5's and it is kind of like having a spotting scope on your rifle its that clear. Downside is one of them is getting sent in because the windage isn't tracking correctly.
 
I’m the opposite of dirtytough. I have the NXS on my long range gun. I’m very impressed with it, and use it for PRS. Shooting 18x24” targets at 1250 yards was very do-able, and the illumination of the reticle was great in low light
 
I love the Swaro X5i. The glass is great, it has more elevation adjustment than the NXS, and superior illumination. Low light performance is much better. You can have issues with any equipment. Both Swarovski and Nightforce have excellent customer service in my experience.
