    Rifle Scopes *JUST RELEASED* Nightforce NX8 FFP 1-8x24mm 30mm Tube & ATACR F1 1-8x24mm 34mm Tube Models

    took my lmt mrp recce our this morning. Was able to stretch the nx8 out to 807 yards with no issues. This really is turning into a fantastic scope. I walked back to 1000 yards and there’s no doubt it could hold its own on a 1000-1200 yard shot. Seeing the 12” steel target was no problem. I did...

    Anyone else have focus issues with the nx8. For me when I get a nice clean 1x image, the image becomes a bit out of focus at 8x. No where near as clear as when I dial back to 6

    I agree. Great review. Although I’d say the nx8 is capable of long range, depending on what you define as long range. Hits on 12” steel was easy at almost 700 yards. Although the picture isn’t as clear when viewing out at distance like my x42 is with parallax set to infinity, I think it could...

    Sent my atacr in today. The service rep didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong with it. We will see what they say.

    That is also great to hear. I was looking for a scope that could double duty on a 14.5-16” recce and a 16-18” 224 valkyrie. If I can get my glare and illumination issue solved on mine, I may have to mount it up and give it a go

    Ran my nx8 out to 640 yards today with great success. I really like this little scope. For its size, weight, brightness, clarity at 1x, and ability to reach out probably last 700 yards it’s great. It is the first 1-x scope I’ve come across that doesn’t give me a double image when I view it at...

    This is how I perceive it as well. Shocked to see how much brother the nx8 is. There shouldn’t be a trade off in brightness from the nx8 to the atacr for 1k more. I shouldn’t have to justify “well in a cqb/indoor scenario it’s plenty bright and mid range outdoors it’s not as important” for $2800

    The one that’s designed to perform better at long range (atacr)

    To me it’s about equivalent to the atacr on 6

    Spoke with nightforce. Confirmed that you will experience difference brightnesses due to the location of the led in the scope.

    If someone can confirm that this is incorrect from personal experience, I’ll send it in for a replacement. Otherwise it’s going back and going to keep the nx8.

    My nx8 and atacr 1-8 just came in. Biggest thing I noticed is the sheer size difference. One thing that isn’t talked about too is how the illumination of the nx8 is far brighter than the atacr. What is a 10 on the atacr is in between a 5 or 6 on the nx8. I swapped to a new battery just to...

    Ya for sure. It would double duty on 224 valkyrie either 16” or 18”

    I’m looking for a one optic solution and figured since people are using the mk8 1-8 on sr25s out to 1000, that it would be a nice solution. 1000 yard shots would be far less frequent, but I can see how it would be limiting myself and the caliber by doing so. Maybe a two optic solution is best.

    Do y’all think the nx8 is up to the task for 1k yard shots on 12-20” steel? Or am I better suited with the atacr. Need it to pull double duty on a recce and a 224 valkyrie setup. I like the weight and compactness of the nx8. Anyone running the nx8 out at distance?
