GOPHER SLAYER,
MY SHOOTING RANGE BUDDY HAS GOT ONE. THE 3.5-15NXS, HE SAYS IT'S THE BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD. I'VE TOUCHED OFF A FEW THROUGH I, AND I HAVE TO ADMIT, IT'S ONE SWEET SET OF LENSES. BUT VEEERY PRICEY. NICE IF YOU CAN AFFORD.

Same here. I have looked through them. A varmit shooter friend has one. They are probably the best of the best. I think they start at about 900.00. The one that my friend has was 1200.00. He is a serious varmit shooter.

I had a 5.5-22x56 with lighted NP R2 reticle. They are very nice scopes. Excellent glass and super durable. It is one of the few that I would trust after falling several feet and landing on the scope. They aren't that much when compared with the swarski and other European scopes.

My best friend has a 5.5-22x56 NXS that he just purchased. Beautiful scope but really made for tactical shooters which he is. They are seriously overbuilt scopes.

A benchrest shooter friend of mine has one. I shot a few rounds w/ it. Super nice scope, but far beyond my price range.
