    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS vs ATACR glass

    I bumped in to you last year at the Nightforce booth and introduced myself. If I see you at SHOT this year I'll say hello again and maybe we can have a laugh about this thread.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS vs ATACR glass

    I have never referred to you privately or publicly as a jackass or anything close to it. You provide solid information and are one of the good guys whom I respect. Personality-wise we might struggle to be friends.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS vs ATACR glass

    Both are very good scopes, for certain. However (and you probably already know this) both scopes would need to be optically zeroed before an equitable comparison can be made. Without confirming that both scopes have the erector assembly pointed at the center of the objective lens, it is very...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS vs ATACR glass

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS vs ATACR glass

    You are not alone. Lots of photographers wrote in and disagreed with my column in Guns & Ammo. What many have a hard time understanding is the only similarity between rifle scopes and camera lenses is they are both tubes filled with glass elements. Like Ilya mentioned above, a scope stops...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce NXS vs ATACR glass

    I'm pretty sure I'm the gun writer you're talking about. What issues do you have with my statement that objective lenses do not gather more light, they dictate the size of the exit pupil?

    Hello Gentlemen, I just saw this thread and thought I would post some additional information from the AI factory tour, the source for the information I used in the article. The statement made on the POI shift caused by fluting came from Ian, AI's engineering team leader in England. The...

    300 winmag,Shortmag ?
