[QUOTE="wyo7, post: 342531, member: 17553"] I've got a dilemma. I'm torn between the 5.5-22x and 8-32x Nightforce NXS scopes. It will be going on a 7mm AM sometime this spring. I currently have a 5.5-22x 50mm on an 7RUM HS precision. I love this scope. But sometimes while using my current setup on 22X I feel like it would be nice to have a little more power, mainly while field judging antlers cause I left my spotting scope back at the truck. I'm not saying I'd use the 32x power very often... I'd guess most conditions with mirage would prevent this. But for those of you out there that have the 8-32x do you really use the range from 22-32x very often? And if so do you find the extra magnification useful when long range shooting? I think I could probably fix the limited 65moa adjustment range with around 40moa cant in the base and rings. Any help or personal preferences on this is greatly appreciated as I don't want to be swapping scopes out mid-summer when I'll be getting most of my practice sessions in with the new rifle. Thanks in advance guys. [/QUOTE]
