$1600. That’s painful
Mine was a bit more, and worth every penny.
i struggle with some of this stuff and I’m asking a question not being at all critical . You say the scope is worth it? What are you getting for all that money? To me it seems like buying large screen TV’s or audio equipment . Can you really justify $1600 when a $500 scope would be so close ( or not) And I’ve owned nightforce scopes. They are top notch but really?
I own anschutz rifles and daystate guns and I can feel and touch and see the quality but these scopes just make me question.
If I was hunting dangerous game ... I hunt groundhogs with my varmint rifles and pigeons with my air rifles
I’m asking for some one to talk me into or explain why I (or anyone else) should spend the money
May be you just have to do direct comparisons which is hard to do
so we go on opinions and the advice of others which is what I am asking for .
For $1600 I could buy another NICE gun

I like nice stuff and I have nice things. Too much truth be told. For some reason I can’t talk myself into spending over $ 500 on a scope. It’s a hang up in my mind. And I guess if I could some how convince my self or maybe even justify it I’d probably spend the money.
I the days that I shot competitively I used leupold scopes ( mostly the 6.5 - 20 x 40 target scopes) and I never felt under glassed. Along comes Nightforce at twice the money and I just can’t get my head around it.
Now this is from a guy that has anschutz rifles and custom action powder burners .
There clearly is a disconnect between my ears on this subject.
I guess I need to just buy one. (OR NOT)
Although I have stopped most of my long range powder burner shooting I could never drop back to what I call "cheap" scopes, to me that is below $1500.
I currently have 7 NF scopes, 3 ATACR, 2 NX8 & 2 COMPETITION, the competition areactually the best optically IMO, the ATACR cost has a lot to do with its robustness and ability to be used in any conditions.
I'm a big fan of NF, but I do think they are overkill for an air rifle. Glass isn't as quite as good as the top end euro glass, but its very good and they are built like a tank. I just can't see spending $2K+ on glass to shoot 200 yards or less and mostly 100 or less.
