that's my plan tooAt least during the wait for MIL-XT in the Fall I'll have a bunch of reviews to consume, and hopefully be able to get hands-on with one as well.
So the PDF says 50mm objective for the 8-32 but the listing on sportoptics.com says 56?
Which is it?
That is correct.Looks like the power ring is now separate from the rear ocular....which is really nice if that's the case.
No more spinning caps.
It's pretty freaking bad ass, we will be posting our impressions of the 2.5-20 soon
Did you get any 4-32's in?It's pretty freaking bad ass, we will be posting our impressions of the 2.5-20 soon
Are you saying you have them in hand for sale already???

I’m usually not one to try out the first run but for some reason I really want one of the 4-32. Right now all I have is a gen 1 razor that is like 5years old and gen 2 pst. I’ve been using the veterans discount for the vortex products which makes all of the vortex hard to beat for me, been planning on getting a gen 2 razor for awhile but man I’m really having to restrain myself from preordering one of these. These look great on paper, check every box for my needs including the price.
I’m really a big fan of the ebr-2c type reticles but other than that this scope looks awesome for my needs. Although the ebr-2c may not work well in the 4-32 magnification range on the top and low end.
I heard that Nightforce will help out with pricing for Military / LEO. Probably worth a phone call.I’m usually not one to try out the first run but for some reason I really want one of the 4-32.

Well, there it is folks. ??
BangDaylight bright illumination or no? Because it’s going to have to be for that reticle to be remotely useable
Why do you need an illuminated reticle during the day? Is the black crosshair hard to see?
Bang
I am not a Vet nor have I served. I also am not a LEO, but I have the utmost respect and hold those that do in high regard. Thank you. I believe you boys should get better pricing than the general public. As you have earned it, and some! It's great that these companies offer this for you guys. ??@bourbonbent @Muley Buck thanks for the heads up and bourbonbent thanks for the contact info. Sent email and had confirmation and price list in 30mins. I haven’t ever bought anything but scope bases from nightforce before, I have wanted to but have continually went with vortex products. Well, nightforce has just earned my business, not that I am done with vortex, they are awesome as well.
Glad for all the good companies and support in this sport/hobby, not just the veterans programs but the all out support and helpfulness of many of the companies for the sport/hobby in general.
I will quit with derailing this thread now.
I am still confused as to why they selected a 30mm. I feel like that's gong backwards. Why not stick with a 34? Will have to wait and see how they look when out. I was really hoping for a 34mm and there new reticle.

Thank you for your input on the NX8.This is shaping up to be one of the best hybrid scopes around with full "tactical/snipery" features. A good tactical scope/rifle is always a great hunting rifle...just usually too heavy/bulky...and the NX8 addresses both of those issues.
For what it’s worth , I was torn between both for a hunting setup so I called NF and asked what the FOV would be at 20x on both. They said that at 20x they are both identical ! The weight is negligible between the two so the only big difference I see is the length. I don’t mind the length so I went with the 32xThank you for your input on the NX8.
Can’t wait!We'll be posting our impressions on the 2.5-20x50 NX8 in the near future
Let us know how you feel about the scope once you use it.Just got word that my pre-order will be coming from this batch! I honestly wasn't even planning on it for hunting season.
Good question. I thought it helped in light transfer also but I could be wrong. Will have to let one of the experts tell us.
Main tube size has absolutely nothing to do with light transmission. It's the size of the objective that brings in all the light and transfers it to our eye...
