What rifle scope is better? Leupold or NightForce?

Im getting into long range shooting/hunting. I am looking at either the NightForce 8-32x56mm or the Leupold Mark 4 6.5-20x50mm LR/T M1. I need opinions on which scope is better off mil dot and what people are using now.

  • Leupold’s are nice scopes, but NF scopes are even better and worth the money. At the NF booth at Shot Show around 26 they had a NF scope that was shot through the scope body with a AK47. The soldier that was using it continued to use it for a few days until he got a replacement scope.

    — I did some more searching and found the story with a picture of the scope. http://www.sportsmanguncentre.co.uk/information-ce…

  • if you can afford the nightforce, its very good

    if you have money to burn.. the hensoldt 6-24×72 zf scope by zeiss is the bomb.

    the schmidt and bender 5-25PM2 is also good and not quit as outragious as the hensoldt.

    The hensoldt screams one message only….

    Then you really need to get a good rifle..and good ammo.

    tight clearences 1/10,0th of an inch or less.. balenced ammo that has been spun to concentracity…

    kreiger or lilja barrels.and attention to the crown.with a compensator/muzzle brake

    I like .338 lapua talk to the folks ar siskguns.com and surgeonrifles.com

    having a big bore rifle is fine you still have to have it tuned so that it will shoot straight-which is why the guys with thier barrets still get spanked when i show up with my 7mm rem mag.

    time on the range also helps.

  • Either will give you outstanding performance…but I would lean towards the Leupold unless you truely need the 32X that the Nightforce offers.

  • Leupold hands down. The optics in a Leupold, especially VX III and II are incredibly sharp.

  • Night force is much better, all the answers are from those that have never had one in their hands. It is like saying a Ford, is better than a Ferrari. No comparison–not even close.

    The 32 power is not used for shooting, it is a target acquisition thing we all shoot @ lower power.
