Nightforce Spotting Scope made by Meopta?

[Sling]

I don`t know for sure but the Nightforce Spotting scope looks just like a Meopta S2. Maybe they make it for Nightforce. Anyway, does anyone know if Nightforce is going to put a reticle in the spotting scope?

I thought it was a Kowa?

It isn't a Tasco?

Why do you want a reticle in a spotting scope? Just curious.

For range use you don't, but it's handy if you have a second person spotting for you in the two way shooting range, tactical competitions, etc.

Edit: the OP probably asked about Meopta because they make a well reviewed one with a reticle that isn't $5k like a Zeiss Spotter 60. I was a bit surprised that Nightforce didn't put a reticle in theirs or make one available, given they sell heavily to the tactical/precision rifle market.

Makes sense, thanks Mike.

For me a spotting scope without a reticle is useless. I shoot benchrest, tactical, and hunting rifles and unless a spotter can call hits using an exact number, not guessing, then I can`t see buying a spotting scope without a reticle. I thought Meopta might make the Nightforce spotting scopes as they look very similar.
