Advice on hunting scopes with quality turrets

[zwickeyman]

Im looking at replacing a couple of scopes and Im looking for SFP duplex style reticles with quality dialable turrets that I can add a ballistic tape

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks

Nightforce is what I use and they come any more durable and reliable in my opinion.

I know the turret reliability is top notch and I have been looking at them but I sure with they had a simple duplex

I don't own one but I've heard good things about Triijicon and I believe they have a scope like what you're looking for. Maybe this one:

I also own a zeis v4 that has a simple duplex reticle.  It has been reliable so far.  It sits on a rifle I don’t shoot much and has super low recoil.   So far….so good, time will tell.

I would just go NX8 for reliability

How is the turret reliability and the glass on the SHV. I see they have a duplex reticle in that line

Check out the MOAR-CF2 reticle. I really like it but I like my TMOA on VX6HD better I think.

I have a couple SHV’s.  Great scope for the money.  Only downside is they do not have a zero stop.  Some models have a zero set which is a must have if you go with the SHV models.   Zero set will allow you to dial 1/4 MOA past zero.  Not all SHV models have zero set…. I wouldn’t own without. 

Reliability is great.  Glass is also very good.

The above being said…..the NSX and NX8 are even better glass.  I own them all and will be buying NX8 from here on out.

Thanks for all the input guys

How would you compare the glass on the SHV vs VX5?

I’ve never looked through an VX5 but the SHV is nicer than all my other leupolds hands down.  I have a couple VX3’s that I love and the nightforce is nicer in my opinion.  The zeiss V4 had pretty amazing glass as well….comparable to the nightforce.

VX5 glass is pretty good. But hands down my Nightforce NSX and NX8’s are way better in my opinion.
Sold my Leupolds and now only own NF

FYI vx3 and vx5 supposedly have the same glass quality, just different magnification ranges.

Any of you guys ever played around with the Leica Amplus 6 ?
