[QUOTE="timeless61, post: 420484, member: 13530"] no, but i have dropped rifles, had a sling break, and the scope broke the rifles fall on rocks, along with many other situations like that, especially when i was younger, and friends having the same situations. and the scopes have been fine. some of the scopes associated were cheaper scopes a lot were leupold, and they have been fine, so i figure, if they were able to stand up to that, i do not need to spend the money for NF, a couple of them were only vari x 2s. i know things can happen, but with where and how i hunt, i do not need it to be able to take extra abuse. most of what i have been saying is for me and my eyes. part of my frustration with NF is that I was pretty set to buy one, and had heard how hands down better in every category than most other scopes, and i finally got to look through some and was very unimpressed with the glass, to the point where i can honestly say the NXS models were the worst scopes i looked through that day for my eyes anyway, the BR model was clearer but not much brighter i was impressed with the robustness of it, but my mark 4 and vari-x iii have tracked well for me, actually, the vari-x seems almost more positive, not sure why that is. also, I am not saying that you can get away with a cheap cheap scope, I more or less wanted to share what i had found out through my own research lately. depends who you talk to, whether the mark 4 is a real tactical scope, so, depending who you talk to one of my scopes is or isnt a real tactical scope. for the money i can buy leupolds for particularly vx-3's i could buy 2 and have money left over for the price of one NXS [/QUOTE]
