I have a 5-25x56 ATACR MOAR and like it VERY much, but it is a big scope.

I have been looking for a smaller scope for some time and have just learned of the new ATACR 4-16x42 F1 and am very impressed.

It is a 34mm tube with ED glass & FFP

The NXS 5-10x42 compact

and the SHV 3-10x42
http://www.nightforceoptics.com/shv/3-10x42
are both 30mm tubes with SFP

all are available with the MOAR reticle which I REALLY like.

I put some requests out for pricing, but have no replies yet, I suspect $ 1-3000.

The drop in value of both the CA$ and the EURO may put the
S&B

and the Tangent Theta

in consideration.

I think they are all good choices and quality glass, (and not a BDC in the bunch)

Default 2.5-10x42 NF

I love mine, have it on a 338/06 build I finished and it's my favorite NF out of the 5 I currently have. The MOAR reticle is really nice and the selectable green/red illumination is a nice upgrade for sure.
