2013 Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show

What scopes do you want to compare?

I want to look at the NF NXS 5.5-22 and the new NF ATACR 5-25 in the MOAR reticle, side by side! The ATACR is more than I need for my 6.5x284 build, however, I'm interested in the new ED glass. If I were to go with the ATACR, I would have to get new 34mm rings. All is an added expense. I guess I'm trying to justify the cost and worth.

I have plenty of NF scopes, but not the new ATACR. Personally, If I were considering moving from the NXS, I would step up to the S&B 5x25. The prescription glass in the S&B is the best there is...If you had the S&B to play with in the field, you would justify the cost.

I currently do not own a NF......S&B is a little out of my range!
 
I want to compare the standard NXS to the ATACR. On my 300 ultra and 270 WBY, I was using a Leupold LPS 3.5-14x50! I want to see how the ED glass in the ATACR compares to the NXS.
 
Don't think you'll have sufficient "environment" in the show to determine if there is a difference. May want to find a dark corner of the building in the ceiling area to see a discernable difference.

It might be interesting to see the final list of vendors/speakers that actually participate in this show after the smoke all clears - just in case someone might not to do business with them in the future :)
 
Gents~

I will join the long list of my fellow brothers....

There will be no booth #6522, and I will not attend the show!


It's time for freedom loving American sportsmen to circle the wagons and fight for what's right. We need a robust response to the anti-gun agenda and it looks like the Harrisburg Show will be the first shot across the bow.

Thanks for joining the boycott Joel.

THANK YOU - as much as it hurts financially I hope it gives you a little peace of mind. If you were a couple thousand miles closer I'd personally feel proud to shake your hand.
