Frequently Asked Questions
What is a First Focal Plane (FFP) scope, and why does it matter?
A First Focal Plane scope places the reticle in front of the magnification lens, so the reticle size scales with zoom. This ensures holdovers and ranging marks remain accurate at all magnifications, making it ideal for tactical and long-range applications where power changes frequently.
How effective is the illumination on the MIL-XT reticle?
The DigIllum system provides adjustable, daylight-visible illumination that’s subtle enough not to obscure the reticle in bright conditions but brightens key elements for low-light targeting, enhancing usability during early morning or late evening hunts.
Is this scope suitable for both hunting and precision shooting?
Absolutely. Its versatile 2.5-20x range and compact design make it perfect for quick, close-range engagements in hunting while offering the high magnification and precise adjustments needed for benchrest or competitive long-range shooting.
Don’t settle for less—equip your rifle with the Nightforce NX8 2.5-20x50mm FFP today and experience the difference in precision and reliability that top-tier optics can bring to your next adventure.
