I have the privilege of military pricing for most big name optics and am looking at spending $1500 or under for a scope with good glass and tracking, keep in mind with these discounts I can get most $2000 priced scopes under the 1500 mark. I will be using scope for hunting and a lot of practice on rocks and varmints. Glass quality IS important to me. I have been burned at last light by piss poor glass (huskemaw 4-16.)
I have been taking a hard look at getting a V4 4-16, I have scoured the internet to find one bad thing about them and I have yet to find anything other than "nit picking." Aside from the glass not reflecting the German made reputation has anyone had a problem with one yet and how are they holding up to abuse? I am also interested the V6, if either V6 model had the ZMOA 30 reticle I would have bought one already. From what I have gathered the V4 is actually Japanese and the V6 is German made can anyone confirm this?
I liked the idea of the NX8 but from the research I have gathered there are better options for the price. (That label must be expensive to print on their products.)
I think there are about 5 of the same scope with different labels out there with the same 4.5-27 mag range that seem to have all the same features. I've considered one of these as well (Athlon Cronus, Tract, etc.) but I have been burned by the "latest, greatest" scope company, twice now. (Vortex.)
I'd love some real world input from those of you that have owned these scopes i have mentioned that have done a good amount of spinning turrets. I left out Bushnell because it appears they don't make MOA scopes in their upper tier offerings which to me is a shame.
Sorry for the word vomit, I have probably over thought all of this but I would appreciate some input.
