[QUOTE="BigBamBoo, post: 441528, member: 28259"] Hmm...well I have had quite a few Leupold MK 4's....and to me, the [B][I]glass[/I][/B] is better then the NightForce scopes. The NightForce scopes have a blue tinge to them...nothing bad, but it is there. The Leupold's are very bright and clear. With that being said....the NightForce scopes offer more of what [B][I]I[/I][/B] need/use in a scope. Broader power range and higher top end magnification then the Leupold's offer. Better target knobs. Better selection of reticles. And are a bit more robust. I only have NightForce scopes on my long rage rifles, so I am not downing on them. Just pointing out that the upper end Leupold's actually have higher resolution glass then the NF's do. I am sure you will love your new NF. Take care,Stan PS....a few of my rifles with Leupold's and NF scopes and a view through a 5.5x22 NF....you can plainly see the blue hue.
