Which scope would you suggest? I like these scopes and have been reading up a bunch about them. Your thoughts...thanks
are they easy to use? I am really new at this long range stuff.
My NF has the NP-R1 reticle and I love it not as busy as the MOAR not trying to say that it is a bad reticle just giving my 2 cents hopefully it helps, I am fairly new to owning NF but I have shot alot of my buddies and they also seem to like the NP-R1 or NP-2DD, which I don't think they even offer anymore.Easy as pie, if you get the MOAR reticle. Yardage judging is simple with the MOAR reticle....If you know about how tall an object is in inches, look at it through your scope and see how many mil-hashes it fits inbetween in height. Divide your items known height (inches), by the number of hash marks it fits inbetween, then multiply by 100, and you have your approximate yardage to dial up.
For example, say the vertical width of a whitetail's back is 16" in hight (average) from top to bottom... And in your scope it fits inside of 4 hashes.
16/4 = 4
4 x 100 = 400
Your approximate distance to your target is 400 yards. So, dial up the number of clicks your ballistics chart tells you to, from your zero'd yardage.
Simple.
Yup those VX-3's are nice but he is already looking at 1400-1800 dollar scopes, he might as well get a NF in my opinion.I have leupold and love it. Found an awesome deal on the vx3 6.5x20 LR. Clear and the adjustments are spot on. For under a grand I can't see it to jump up another 800-1000 bucks. Just can't justify it. I've also heard only good things on vortex. Just MHO
