[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1563937, member: 10291"] I own both the AMG(MIL, EBR-7), and two NF F1’s in 5x25x56(MIL-R) and recently, a 7x35x56(TREMOR3), all used for PRC. I really like the controls, glass, reticle, and overall design of the AMG, but I don’t think the AMG stands up to the rigors of PRC. Mine and two other AMG’users during matches over the past three years have had sticking or fully jammed turret problems during a match resulting in DNF’s. While Vortex has excellent service with fast turn around,, the loss of confidence ended the AMG for PRS competition for me. I have not seen a single ATACR failure, and the glass, controls, and turret accuracy of the F1 is top tier. I’m surprised you experience tunneling. I have not noticed it with the F1’s(or even my older MOA based ATACR used for hunting). I definitely see it at the lower powers with my S&B PMII. IMO, the NF/F1 in 5x25X56(or 7x35x56)) ATACR-R with a TREMOR3 reticle is a a difficult combo to beat for serious PRS competition. I really like the AMG’s EBR-7 reticle, but the TREMOR3 has greater utility(wind dot system) without visually appearing any more cluttered or complicated then the EBR-7, and faster to use once familiarized.
