Just ordered a 708 in a savage 110 high country and i have a dilemma on the scope choice , i have it narrowed down to ... NX8 4-32x50 F1 Zeiss Conquest V6 5-30x50
I have a NX8 2.5x20 on a 68 already and i know what to expect but i was kind of think SFP for this hunting setup but cant very many reviews on the V6 . This will be a dedicated hunting rig out to about 400-600 yards but mostly 2-300 . So anyone with both or at least the V6 can give me some feed back i would appreciate it.

I have that NX8, and I would highly suggest going with that!

SFP at 30X? Really? It would be culled immediately for me.
Zeiss makes nice glass. . . . Night Force makes nice glass, tough scopes, properly tracking turrets, nice reticles, and return to zero.
I've proven the reliability of NF. And I've proven the un-reliability of Zeiss at least on my range.

Yep I have some fields that are around 1000’ yards and like to look at the bucks on the other end of the field sometimes. Have you ran any of the nx8 ? The one I have is good I really like it almost as good as my old nxs , almost want to put another on but want a light rig.

30X available is all good. Being SFP, you're married to which magnification for your reticle to be correct? Where does the scope subtend?
NX8 yes, I have shot with it, and love it!
