Default Anyone try the new ATACR Nightforce Scope??

hey everyone

In the process of replacing my guns lost in my house fire thinking about upgrading to the new ATACR Scope just looking to see if anyone has any experience with it. I used to own a Nightforce NXS

Thanks.

New as in the ATACR or the F1 ATACR?

Both are better than the NXS in every way.

Buddy has a 4-25x34 MOAR Atacr. Awsum scope. 120 MOA of adjustment. With our dollar the way it is they are getting pretty pricey. I think for the majority of shooters/hunters the NXS will perform as well as the Atacr. For a hunting scope my next scope will be an SHV.

I plan on buying the 5-25x56 ATACR for my custom rifle and I'll buy the SHV for my 270 WSM Just have to figure out what gun to buy since Remington doesn't make the TI anymore.

Somebody mentioned the F1 on sale at Prophet? for $3300 this week. Not sure if sale is still on, but that's a no-brainer at that price.

Not sure what they cost now, but I think the older, non FFP scope sells for more than that usually.
