Help with what to top a new build…

[jayjay24]

So for some background, my only experience with my custom rifles that I have built (300 RUM, 7mm Mag, and 243 AI), I only have experience with the NF NXS model 5.5-22x50 with the G7 reticle from Gunwerks. Now, with that said, I love these scope for what they are. They're durable, decent glass, and good movements. I'm building another rifle, a 6.5 PRC with a different objective in mind. This one will be much lighter and smaller package than my others (26", 4 and 5 contoured steel barrels) with a 20" Proof Sendero tube. I am interested in getting something with better glass this time with the same or close to the same amount of magnifications and elevation adjustments. I've always been an MOA and SFP guy but not opposed to going the other direction. My price range is anywhere from $2000 - $3500 probably for this scope. I have looked at Schmidt and Bender, Kahles, and others but just can't seem to find the right fit for what I want. Something more compact for this more compact of rifle. Any suggestions as something to look at would be helpful. Thank you!

NIGHTFORCE out of the five I have (yes I've had Leopold, Vortex and others). Always the same I return to NF.
Just my thoughts.
Good luck

I use all vortex Gen 3. I can't remember what the reticle size is but I like it. That being said on my 338 Lappula magnum, I use a valdada

I'm sure I would be just as happy with the NX8 4-32 but just "want" something different that NF but I guess having the same platform on all my rifles makes sense too

Why down grade and go with a lesser optic? Stick with Nightforce. That said, the only other option I would run would be Trijicon.
