I own 2 of the gen II vortex & have shot the NF 7-35 (Mil-R reticle). I don't think I would ever need that much magnification (7-35) for PRS distances. Besides that, the Mil-r reticle was way too thick at the higher powers compared to the vortex, at least for my liking. Maybe the Mil-C will be better though, hard to say. I CAN say I really like the thinner reticle and open center on the ebr-2c. When you add in the additional grand for the NF and the long wait, the decision would be a no brainer for me! As far as glass goes, from my eyes I can't tell the difference. I shoot the vortex on my boomer out to targets at 2500 yds and the optical clarity and magnification range is more than sufficient.
