[QUOTE="Ben Keller, post: 1891447, member: 106918"] - I know I’m a little late to the party here, but this has been an interesting thread to say the least and I felt it was worth my two cents. Aaron, I’m a Gunwerks fan and previously owned one of your rifles, that shot well by the way, and I agree with a lot of what you’ve had to say in the thread. I am however curious to know if you have tested the NX8 at all. Based on your statement, as quoted above, you listed weight as a benefit to some of the products you now currently offer over some of the old products you did offer. Now from your objective standpoint would the new NX8 not provide some benefit over the Mark 5? The 4-32 is definitely smaller, provides more magnification, and is slightly lighter than the 5-25. And while the 2.5-20 is of similar size to the 3.5-18 Leupold it does provide slightly more magnification if you were to compare the two. Your admiration for the Atacr and the NXS is obvious based your admitted sales for both of them, and with the NX8 being a mix between the two (since it has mostly ED glass) wouldn't it be worth looking at? I’m no Nightforce supporter, but I like their products let me say that. If you disregard the behind the scenes issues you had with nightforce, as an industry leader, would it make sense as a revolutionary company like yours to test a revolutionary scope like the NX8 (whether it be the 2.5-20 or the 4-32)? Maybe the benefits of the NX8 aren’t great enough for you to carry them based on your issues with the company but to the average long range hunter like me it could be.
