Nf Nxs

Ive a NF NXS thats at NF as we speek getting fixed for the same problem,It had the zero stop washers on it.. NF scope's are Durable beyond the call of duty, BUT The turret assy was never designed to have forces pull up on the 110 TPI thread assy .

If a washer under the TURRET made a zero stop and it was that easy wouldnt Night Force sale the washers,The NF factory zero stop is bomb proof and smart and built to be a Zero stop without the upward force on the turret assy..

I know alot of others have the washer and do fine,, for NOW.

I came in 4th at the last match I went to, I checked my gun after the match and was 1 MOA lowe and 100 yards I know now why I was 4th place and 1MOA low at all ranges ....

Ive two other NF scopes that are nuts on and have no washer and will never see a washer..

I disscussed this very subject with Nightforce a few weeks ago and Nightforce said that they had tested the washers and that was not the way to go.

So why didn't you tell me? Where you mad about being wrong about gravity and which way an apple falls out of a tree and just going to let me ruin my scope this weekend at F-class.

No Bob I am not mad at you at all. Kevin did not tell me that the washers could damage the scope, he simply said that they did not work well.
If I am wrong about gravity, then so is Gerald Perry owner of Perry Systems, as well as the Military for relying on his products.
