Sightron vs Nightforce--???

[jb1000br]

Booger, yes, the 8-32 is a good choice. I will be putting one on my next 1000yd BR rifle. Yea, 1/4min clicks

High mount helps get your face off the stock. Scope is just as susceptible to cant low or high... scope cant just makes the tracking run off plumb. A canted rifle with scope attached causes more issues. For a fixed distance comp with sighters, this really doesn't matter too much.

I attach a level to the scope base,B-square) then level the rifle. Then align the scope's vertical c-hair with a plumb-bob,any weight) on a rope at 100yds.

HTH,
JB

theres a guy named koshkin from swfa forums and he is probably the most well respected when it comes to scopes and he said that sightron slll's are best scope being made in japan as we speak,thats a good thing cause japan makes some awesome scopes.

The Sightron has 1/4' dot and 1/4 clicks............Not what I'd want for precision work.

Sigh... what's this 'we' stuff; are you French?

Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Hasselblad, Leica, Swarovski, Zeiss are legendary optics company. Based in Japan and Germany/Austria.

If you want to buy a scope mfgd. in the USA, then choose a Leupold, Burris, USO, or a Trijicon.

It's a global marketplace.

I understand that Sightron will be offering the 8-32 with 1/8' adj. and either an 1/8' dot or fine crosshair in the near future. And the rumored 10-40ish with 1/8' adj. and target reticle will also happen soon.

I had a chance to compare to a Nightforce NSX recently. The Sightron was the hands down winner in all areas.
