This may be my favorite product that Nightforce makes. I had to grab another one of these for my own use. Shown here on a 6.5 Grendel in a Spuhr SP-4026 mount:

Yea I got that with the new 5-25f1 MIL-C definitely comes in handy when zeroing the scope.

Nice!
Didn't come with mine. Bought a few months ago.

I didnt receive one either, wonder if NF could accomodate me on one of those handy dandy tools.. I absolutely love my 4-16 F1, great little optic with great glass and love the zero set elevation turret.

I'm going to have to call and request one.

How is the cheek weld with that low of a mount? I'm used to 1.5"ish tall ar mounts.

How is the cheek weld with that low of a mount? I'm used to 1.5"ish tall ar mounts.

The axis of the iron sights on an AR' are I believe 1.4" - 1.5" above the top rail, so a 1.5"-ish tall mount such as yours is pretty much a benchmark. It's also close to ideal when used with a clip-on night vision device. Often referred to as an "absolute" co-witness height for red dot sights, it's my preference with a sight fired from a more or less erect posture or stance.

The Spuhr SP-3026 mount, at 1.26" high, was created specifically for the Noveske shooting team. It works well for me, but especially well when shooting from the prone position. It admittedly does require a "harder" cheek weld when shooting from standing, but I can easily accommodate that. With this being a precision rifle, having a solid cheek weld when shooting from prone is of primary importance to me. Shooting from the prone with a 1.5" high optic totally destroys my cheek weld.

Can I ask why you choose the 42 Objective vs 50?

I wanted a first focal plane scope. The NF ATACR 4-16x50 is offered in only second focal plane.

Your right, to much data to try and remember. Tks
