Those who use a Nikon ProStaff scope on their ML???
Have any of you had any issues with this scope? I currently have a 3-9X40 BDC Nikon ProStaff on my Genesis but I haven't fired it yet. I just don't want to run into any issues with the recoil messing up the scope. I know there are better scopes out there but I like Nikon and this one was pretty conservatively priced. If I end up boogering this one up I'll probably get an Omega.

I have the Prostaff 3-9-40 on my 7MM Mag and my buddy has one on his 300WBY Mag. Both for 2 years now with quite a bit of range shooting. All is well.I don't think the ML would have much more recoil.I am going to put a 2-7-32 Prostaff on my Omega as soon as i save up the coin

I use pro staff's 2-7x32mm on three muzzleloaders. Two Whites and a Knight. And I do not baby them. I shoot large conicals with good powder charges and also large charges in the Knight. The Pro Staff has worked flawless. I think once you get shooting it, you will really understand just how good a quality of a scope you have.
This was one scope that the gun shop owner who also shoots competition, recommended to me when I was ready to spend a lot more for a scope. He told me he could sell me a more expensive scope, but it would be hard to find a better scope. He told me he sells a lot of Pro Staff scopes and they never come back for service or trade. People just like them.
Also, Nikon has great customer service, but you will never need it. Yet it is nice to know it is there.

I've got three 2x7x32 Pro Staffs. Two on muzzleloaders and one on a 1187 slug. I'd buy more of them if I needed them. Great scope in my opinion.

Got a 3x9-40 refurb on a Rem 600 308 and a 2x7-32 on a Win 70 375 H&H. Great scopes, comparible to scopes costing 2x as much. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.
