Nice scope - Nikon Pro-Staff 5 Rifle Scope - 4.5-18X41

I will start off by saying that the only thing I didn't like is that optics planet nor the manufacture knows that this scope comes with optional tall turrets and a sun shade in the box. these items only come with the x18 (and 18x custom model) and not the x14 like I ordered first. I didn't realize for an extra $100 (price difference between the x14 and x18) that I would receive the additional tall turrets and sunshade due to spotting it in the owners manual for "what's included per model". I called optics planet and Nikon and neither said that this scope came with anything like that because that wasn't in their system. I returned the x14 and got the x18 anyway and guess what...came with the tall torrents and sunshade which both are worth more than the price difference alone.

The clarity isn't what I want at 1000 yards but this model is only $400.00. I still give it 5 stars because its a rock solid scope that always holds its zero (with a .30-06) and I love the tall turrets. I can see a 750 yard 18" plate perfect and an 18" plate at 1000 yards is doable. I would honestly say that the next step up from this would be a very expense Nightforce. Also, the Nikon Spot-on webpage is about %98 accurate with scope adjustments.
