[QUOTE="uncleB, post: 125959, member: 4679"] [ QUOTE ] A couple years ago one of my friends talked me in to dialing in 2 of his father's rifles they both had Swavorskie eeerrr Swarovski scopes. after spending time with them doing load developement and shooting at different distances I found that neither scope tracked true going from 100yds to 1000yds and back and the reticles (not sure of there proper designation ) SUCK. I own 2 Swarovski binos the 10x42 EL's and the 15x56 SLC's you could not convince me that they are not the best bino's made they also make a top notch spotting scope, but for some reason there rifle scopes leave a lot to be desired. the Night Force is awesome but a Leupold 6.5x20 LR or 8.5x25 LR is in the same league for half the money. IMO UB [/ QUOTE ] Itried to stay away from this but couldn't. Iron Workers question was what is better for varmints a 5.5x22 NXS Night force or a 6x24 Swarovski. I tried to relate my experience that with all the wonderful products that Swarovski makes Binoculars,Spotting scopes,probably the best rangefinder on the market, hell they even make world class glass doll's. with all that there rifle scopes miss the mark for the U.S. and Long Range Shooter market (the glass is great but the reticles and the mechanic's are a debacle). I stated that Nightforce was AWESOME (I said nothing derogatory) I stated that Leupold was in the same LEAGUE. I did not say it was equal to or better than. some people acted as if I ran over the family cat. It seems to me that Nightforce owners are so blinded by myopia they can barely see through the scope they so cherish. Iron Worker needed a scope for varmint's (vague), if it is to be a bench type rifle then a Nightforce would be an AWESOME choice, if it is to be a walking varminter then a Leupold LR would be my choice because of the weight, if money is no object then the Nightforce is AWESOME, if he has a stock factory rifle he might not want to spend 3 times the price of the rifle on a scope. My point is that yes Nightforce is AWESOME but there are other choices in the same league (swarovski not being one of them) saying that Nightforce is the only scope for all situations only proves the myopia. feel much better now.
