I've got a Nightforce NXS 3.5-15 that Europtic was blowing out due to an unpopular reticle. I think I paid $1,200 NIB for the scope. There are many options out there these days with respect to quality optics with good warranties. Don't cheap out on the rings/mount and that is just as critical. I went with a Nightforce magmount with the x 3 clamps for the pic rail. Everything is on and M82A1 in FDE.

If you don't like the reticle, send it back to NF and have them change it. Simple solution.

The reticle is no issue for me. It was unpopular because it would not allow for milling of wind/elevation on a staionary/moving target so the PRS guys weren't buying it. That not an issue for me or the .50. I just wanted a bomb proof optic on top of this rifle.

When I had my 50BMG, I put the SWFA 20X SS with seekins rings. No issues at all. Can’t beat the cost and warranty of the SS.
