Some Nightforce questions

[Riflemanse]

Hi

Im planing to buy a new scope for my long range hunting/target stick that are beeinb built right now. Caliber is 300 WM.

I have never owned a Nightforce but been reading a lott about them.
The model I think suits me best is the NXS 3.5-15x50 since I need a low magnufication for shorter ranges. (Long range is not that common where I hunt)

What reticle can you recomend? I have read good stuff about the NP-R1.
Since im from Sweden im used to think in the metric system, is there any metric reticle and adjustments on the turrets to chose?
If so, what should I specify when ordering?

Thanks in advance

I know you can get the mildot reticle for the nxs line and I believe the 3.5X15 is available with mil adjustment turrets.You can click the NF link below.Another option you could look at is the USO SN3,1.8X10.Click the link and you can see all the variations available.Both are very good glass.

I use and highly recommend the NPR-2 Reticle

The NP-R2 is great ! Have had mine just about a month and it is so easy to use.

I'd say the last thing you need to do is confuse yourself with inches and MOA. Get the MLR reticle, which is Mils and .1 Mil click turret (each click nicely works out to 1 cm at 100 meters).

I agree totally, since you are familar with metric stay with it. No reason to change..
