Nightforce NXS
For those getting started in the Precision Rifle Series (PRS), the Nightforce NXS 8-32x56mm scope is an excellent option. Designed for precision, this scope features a versatile magnification range that ensures no target is beyond reach. The ZeroStop elevation technology allows for quick returns to zero, while the broad 8-32x magnification provides versatility for various applications. The MOAR-T reticle with .0625 MOA lines facilitates accurate range finding and holdover estimation. Constructed from durable aircraft-grade aluminum, this scope is built to withstand tough conditions. The second focal plane design ensures that the reticle maintains size relative to the target as you zoom in or out, and the illumination enhances visibility during low-light situations. With its advanced optics, the NXS delivers bright images and reliable performance in any environment.
Sightmark Core HX
The Sightmark Core HX rifle scope combines a classic red illuminated dot duplex reticle with a large 56mm objective lens, offering superior low-light performance and ensuring bright, clear images even in tough lighting. I’ve found that the red illumination greatly enhances target acquisition, allowing for fast and precise aiming in various conditions. The side focus adjustment is a game-changer, offering parallax removal without needing to shift position, which is a huge benefit for ensuring accuracy in dynamic hunting situations. The scope
