[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 14758, member: 34"] Hello To add my two cents here. I have had several Nightforce scopes from the 8X to 32X and the 12X to 42X and they do have some fine features that Leupold does not have in their 8 1/2X to 25 X Longrange (50 MM and side wheel focus) series such as the selection of reticules for instance. With that being said, I think we are all wanting the best optics and I also think the Leupold 8 1/2X to 25X Longrange with the sidewheel focus and 50 MM objectives is the superior scope in this department as to "MY" eyes. I have had several people I know tell me the same thing though. You would have to lay the two scopes down beside each other and set the power setting the same for BOTH and then make your own decision. That's exactly what I did and the findings were apparent. I sold three of my Nightforce scopes after I did the comparison. The cost on the NXS Nightforce is more then $1350.00 and you can buy a Leupold LR for around $730.00. That tells me you could have "almost" two Leupold Longrange scopes for the price of one Nightforce. Both scopes are VERY well made and you really can't go wrong with either one. One is made in Japan (Nightforce) and the other one (for the most part) is made in the USA. Your decision. Later DC [ 12-03-2002: Message edited by: Darryl Cassel ] [/QUOTE]
