High quality optic - NightForce NXS 3.5-15x50mm Zero Stop High Speed Military Rifle Scopes with NP-R1, Mil-Dot, MLR Reticles

This product is great for a very serious marksman. I have extensive experience through numorous years in the military with marksmanship and sniper/counter sniper operations. I have tested many different optics and I own many different optics. This optic is up there with the best to include Schmidt & Bender, Zeiss, and Swavorski. The high speed model is great because it allows you to make less evolutions on your turret to dial in while still maintaining that positive brisk click adjustment. This scope comes with a sunshade which I think should be a must on every optic. I put this optic through very rugged conditions to include dragging the rifle through gravel and dirt while still maintaining a zero, and it proves that you can really push this optic beyond what you may think possible without effecting your zero. The negative I have is that the half MIL marks may be hard to distingush from the full MIL mark. I think the full MIL mark in the reticles should be slightly longer to help set the two apart. Other than that the zero stop is a great added feature and you can not go wrong purchasing this optic.
Pros: Very durable and will withstand rugged use.
Cons: MLR reticles may be hard to define half MIL marks.
