[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 556785, member: 10291"] I own three Nightforces scopes, a compact, Benchrest, and an NXS. Between competitive shooting, hunting, load development, and just practicing , i have over 3000 rounds through them. They are great scopes, no question. But there are other very good scopes I own that will get the job done and I am hard pressed to see a difference in clarity, turret precision, etc. I think what you get for the extra bucks you pay for is somewhat similar to what you get when you buy a Rolex. Thirty years ago I bought a Rolex. I couldnt really afford it, my wife thought I was nuts, and I was guilt ridden. The watch has only been off my wrist to change time zones, or daylight savings. Showers, swimming, dirt, and mud. It still keeps perfect time, and is worth twice what I paid for it. I sometimes wonder how many other watches I would have bought over the last 30 years. I respect that not everyone buys into this philosophy. [/QUOTE]
