Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Anyone not like their NF SHV?

Don't doubt you did that .......but..........Apples and oranges.....No doubt your rifle is a lot heavier than mine and I don't think the 6.5 GAP with 140 grain bullets recoils quite as much as a 280AI shooting 175's, especially in a 5 pound Kimber Mountain Ascent. Your scope weighs 20 ounces. Mine weighs in at 30.5 according to the NF website. Big heavy scope, lightweight rifle and relatively heavy recoil is not a good combo when you throw in Talley rings. They just slap did not work in this combo. The guy I talked to at Night Force didn't discuss other models, but it did come across as a blanket statement the way he said it, "Night Force recommends mil-spec rings and bases for our scopes" Glad the Talley's work for you, glad you like them. Wish they worked for me, they came with the rifle....I had to spend more money. I like the one you have posted.
