I have been impressed with my 3-10x42 so far. Eye relief is very similar to my Leupolds but they seem to be better built. Time will tell.

I have the 4-14x56. It's a great scope. Not a light weight but I like it. It lives on my prairie dog rifle.
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

Is there a Leupold that can match the NF in durability and adjustment range?

Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!

I have a 5-20. It is an awesome scope for its purpose.
For hunting I would like to have a 3-10. In fact I am planning on selling a few toys to pick one up. Great scopes. Zero complaints.

I just wish a guy could get the illuminated reticle in the 3 to 10! The skinny little MOA reticle isn't heavy enough for my likes for low light hunting.

what do you think of the Bushnell 3-12 LRHS, based on reports here on the fire I am going to try one.

For those looking, Whittakers had the best price I found on the 3-10 SHV. I'd give them a shout if I needed another.

I have 3 of em and haven't had any problems... Tracks perfect... Seem robust... One on my 223 P-Dog rifle has over 4k rounds under it now... 95% of the shots were dialed... No problems at all...
Eta: these 3 are 3-10x42s... I have the 4-14 and 5-20s as well and same thing... Solid scopes...

I have a 3-10x42 with the MOAR reticle on an AR; so far so good & I like the turrets a lot.
As with all NF's it's not a lightweight.

56mm on the 4-14 and 5-20 are show stoppers for me.
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.
