Nikon Scopes

[Blacklab]

Have the buckmasters 3x9x40 on a 06 with no complaints. Looking to put a new scope on the AR which will be a nikon. Just not sure which one.

[coachcw]

I have had a good one and a bad one. So I will stick to my leupolds

Why mess around go with a leupold !

[buckfvr]

I have a few. My favorite is my Monarch 5-20X44AO with a Custom Kenton Industries turret. I love the quality but have not had to test the customer service.

What happens to warranties when you put after market turrets on your scopes

Sorry to hijack but would any of these hold up to a magnum type rifle? I have no problems on a .223 but was wondering about a .300 RUM or similar.

Yeah I had one on an 300 ultra mag held true through an through till I traded it kept the scope put it on my 22-250 love it, it is the older buckmaster too

I did spot on the same thing with my monarch a couple days ago. but I picked up a new 300rum a day later after giving up my old one. which I got a new scope for and forcing me to pair up my lonely monarch with a new 22-250

I shoot a 300 WSM with a Nikon Buckmaster 4.5x14x40 on it and I like it alot. Nikon makes the lenses for Leupold scopes, or at least that is what I heard from a salesman and a few others.

This is my combo as well. Just make sure you get good mounts as I had the recoil break the factory ones.

money is a big issue when it comes to optics and hunting gear for me when i started hunting i paid 250$ for a pair of steiner binos they lasted about three years fell apart next pair bushnell lasted two years junk next pair swarvoski much more money mutch beter glasses life time warranty done buying glasses for the rest of my life unless i decide to buy the liecas with the built in range finder those are trick

 I shoot a 4.5x14x40 on my 300WSM and haven't had any problem holding 0. I've been told that Nikon makes the lenses for Leupold also. I like the rubber molding on the back of the eyepiece as it's saved me a couple of scars already!

just put a nikon  4-12 power scope with the bdc reticle  on my elk rifle and love it. havent had a chance to use the reticles yet but im loving it so far !!

[rainshadow1]

+1... actually about +6! Plus a pair of monarch Binos. Dollar for dollar they're tough to beat, but getting up to Monarch prices (I have 1) I'd rather go Leupy... For the affordable (<$300) scopes on the regular, beatin' around, huntin' rifles... you just can't beat them.

I just bought a 5-20 x 44, it came with two sets of turrets. On sale at Wholesale Sports.

[huntnphool]

 I have several on my rifles, been knocked around, dropped and never had an issue. Nice durable, bright scope for the money. Nikon makes some of the best camera lenses in the world, they know optics.

[GreyWolf]

I like my 4-16x42 Monarch SF A LOT!

Only con for me is the logos have a cheesy gold finish that needs to be painted over.

[Brownie28]

i have owned a prostaff a coyote special and a m.223 and have been satisfied with the quality of them all for the price. the only thing i wasnt too excited about was the BDC reticle. other than that they are great optics

I have a 2.5x10 Monarch on my long range coyote rig that works just great.  My 35 Whelen wears a 1.5x4.5 Monarch now, it ate the VariX II 1x4 I started with on it.  I'm very pleased with Nikon scopes.  I tried the Coyote Special but didn't care for all the little circles, too busy for me.
