@ golden shower....J you are an idiot....one we hold in high regard and appreciate the idiocy I wondered why NF ran a 20% off on their NXS and thought this might be the reason...new scopes.

Gonna be a pretty big deal. I've had people all over me to pre order these things before the specs were even released. They're telling me first shipment in early July. That link I posted on the order post has the data sheets. I'll post it again: Data Sheets & Pre-Order List

Ordered another NXS this week. Might give one of these a shot too, really been looking for a compact high-mag scope.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Focus range will be crucial for the 2.5x. Any idea what the minimum parallax setting is, Myron? If it's less than 50 yards, I'll have a Bushy LRHSi in the classifieds. Yessir 11 yards. Super impressive. Full details in that link I posted.

So----- NX8 or Mark5HD MOA??? Same weight, similar mag range... 30mm vs 35mm tube Some Leupolds have been sent in for repair. Nightforce, well, it's as rare as a blue moon for them to break down. Agreed. I can't think of anyone I know that has had to send a NF in. That had a lot to do with my decision to carry them. Stuff that breaks is always a PITA for the dealer. Well any one that cares after the fact I guess.

We are accepting pre-orders to assure you can get from the 1st wave of scopes as they arrive
