NX8 – 2.5-20x50mm F2 – ZeroStop™ – .250 MOA – DigIllum™ – PTL – MOAR-CF2™ – Dark Earth

Description

The Nightforce NX8 2.5-20×50 F2 (part number C686) is a second focal plane (f2) riflescope with a 2.5-20x zoom range, 50 mm objective and 30 mm main tube, fitted with the MOAR-CF2 reticle and .250 MOA click adjustments. It weighs 28.6 oz (811 g) and is 12.1 in (308 mm) long, giving an 8:1 zoom ratio in a package short enough for compact hunting rifles and long-range gas guns alike. The MOAR-CF2 is a MOA-based hold-over reticle with a floating centre crosshair and 1 MOA windage/elevation marks, scaled for the second focal plane so holds are correct at 20x. ZeroStop lets you return to zero by feel, DigIllum digital illumination gives a daylight-usable centre, and the Power Throw Lever (PTL) is fitted as standard. Finish: Dark Earth. Australian supply is through the Lightforce Australia group in Hindmarsh SA; 3 Gun Tactical in Tingalpa, Brisbane, can order any NX8 configuration.
