Ihave gift cards for walmart I need to use. I have seen a nikon buckmaster at local store and a nikon omega with nikoplex online.
Which one would you guys think would be best for a cva accura.
Also i have read something about the acurra needing larger screws
for scope base. will cva bases not work or will ineed to get different
ones and where do you get them thank you

I think all Omegas have the ranging reticle, right? With open circles as aiming points? If my understanding of this is correct I have never been a fan of a reticle that does not provide a precise aiming point (crossed lines, mil-dots are ok).

I own a Buckmaster, 3X9 SF it is on my CZ453 .22lr. They are a GREAT scope for the money.

Walmartonline catalog website shows an omega with nikoplex.
it may be an oldermodel but they show it was in stock. I think
i would prefer it to the bdc

I just mounted my omega on my TC triumph. My Omega has the Nikoplex. I was wanting the BDC but couldn't pass up the deal I got from Natchez SS. Plus, I can see what powder/bullet load my guns likes best. I'd go with an Omega over a Buckmaster. I don't know this to be fact, but I believe the Omega has better glass---DrASUS

I have a buckmaster and its a great scope. Dont have a omega but its a nikon so im sure its a good one to.

It it's got nikoplex, it's going to come down to preference. I think you'd be hard pressed to tell a difference in the glass -- they are both nikon and relatively close in price. There is certainly no problem with the glass in the Buckmaster.

I own both also and my choice would be the Omega.

I have tried most of them and found that the Omega gives me the most precise aiming points when paired with a good laser range finder. Instead of just one line the circle gives you the cross at the top and bottom of the circle and the center like a peep. I guess it is all in what you like and are trying to accomplish. Lee
