Night Force Scope

[Gibbo]

Getting into bench rest type shooting and looking for a good scope, would like one for bench and prs style if possible. I Like the looks of Night Force Competition 15-55x52 FCR-1 reticle or should use just the fine crosshair reticle? Advice appreciated.

The NF Comp is highly regarded on the line for it's clarity and light weight.
Besides March, where I can get by on a heavy gun, I run the NF Comp DDR-2
floating dot. I prefer a dot while others a fine cross hair. For PRS, the DDR-2
reticle would be a better choice for holds.

you have not clearly defined your use...what benchrest, short range (100/200/300) or long range (600/1000). what weight gun ??
while 15 to55x is just about the std in br, the march 10-60x current model is better, and it IOR 10-60x is great

Rimfire 50-100 yd matches

well yes the nf 15-55x with your choice of reticle.
the march 10-60x high master has lense coatings which improve
vision in what would normally be mirage....this might help even at these short ranges

Sightron S-III SS 45x45................It has ED glass and is very light. It won't break the bank and is a VERY good scope.

Have you thought about how the weight of your setup will impact your shooting experience? A lighter scope can make a difference in comfort during long sessions.

Really? Please explain, I must be missing something.

If you’re hoping to use one scope for both, you might consider something more versatile like the Nightforce ATACR 7-35x56 still premium glass, but better suited to dynamic shooting. As for reticles, the FCR-1 gives you holds and reference points which can really help in PRS, while a fine crosshair is great for precision but lacks those quick reference marks.
