Which size? I am liking the 3-10x42. The others not so much.

I'll take the 21oz's if it's dependable...........

There is that.

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.
Posted By: 41rem Re: Nightforce SVH - 06/11/15
Is there a Leupold that can match the NF in durability and adjustment range?

Nope.

I agree. I've been thinking about this one, but have not bought one yet.

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.

Optics Planet has 3-10 SHV demos with IHR reticle for $761 right now.

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...
Posted By: Higginez Re: Nightforce SVH - 06/13/15
Anyone weight a 3-10?
Posted By: elkhuntinguide Re: Nightforce SVH - 06/13/15
20.74 ozs...

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.

+1 My sentiments as well.

I'd like to see the 4-14 a little smaller but 50-56 on a 20+ power scopes is fine with me. In don't use 5-20's on smaller handy type guns anyway.

I would be fine with 50mm on either the 4-14 or 5-20.

While we're at it I'll wish for a 3-10x42 with hv 600 reticle. I've used that reticle on two different rifles now and really really like it on a hunting gun. I still prefer to dial but for quicker shots and it having capped turrets the hv reticle would be great for me.
