you are gonna have fight on your hands claiming a nightforce has anything on a S&B or a USO. they are good stuff........but there is always better.

The schmidt and benders we use are great...spendy and durable but just a pain in the butt to use...take a long time to do follow on shots at different distances but lots of practice and you can hit at 1000 yds...the glass is great on both the  US optics and S&Bs but i have leupold on all my hunting rifles...thats what my dad bought me so thats what i use....should update someday but love all three...sooo the best scope for you is up to you..look through em and weigh your options. there are lots of different things to think about when looking for one. What is gonna be your max range? are you gonna be shooting targets or animals..low light gonna be a factor...all things to think about....good luck...Justin

I coming at this from a hunting point of view....We have Leupold's on our hunting Rifles. VariX II 3-9x40 mostly but I also have a Leupold 4-12 x 40 in a VXI . I hope to upgrade this year to a VariX III 4.5-14X40. I've never had a problem with Leupold. Great scope for the money.

Must be joking.  S&B or a USO over Nightforce? :rolleyes: :o

How about this.  Buy all three....Take them out of their boxes....Smash the S&B and the USO using the Nightforce like a hammer and then continue to use the Nightforce with no POI change. :dunno:  S&B and USO will Change POI.  Nightforce will not........ ;)

You proved you don't know a good truck so I figure you don't know squat about scopes either :hello:
Some people spend their entire life wondering if they made a difference. Marines don't have that problem.

+1, Nightforce kicks asssss, but I use Nikon on my rifles, the buckmasters are great scopes, the new monarcs are superb.
God is great, Beer is good, people are crazy.
