Don't laugh. I do need to say the new NF = ?x to 20x by 50mm which was at the range today the focus was not adjusted perfectly for my eyes. The NF reticule was much thinner than my 6-24x50mm PST FFP MOA scope, but ( maybe because the NF was not in perfect focus it was not as clear ) as my PST. In fact the PST seemed much brighter then the NF. Even one of the other shooters that had a NF BR scope made a comment of how clear my scope was.

This was the first time I was able to compare mine to a NF. This really surprised me.

How old was the NF you were comparing to? Lenses clean?

OOPS, I had the PST FFP MOA scope on 24x and the NF was on 20x and we were both looking at our targets which were next to each other at 400 yds.

I just called the guy with the NF and he said that his was an older one and it is 5.5-20x56mm.

The reason why I was so surprised that my new 6-24x PST FFP MOA definitely looked brighter and clearer was because when I had the first 6-24x PST which was exchanged for this one with the tighter turrets I compared the old one to this NF and the NF was much clearer.

Both scopes had clean lenses.

"SORRY" guys I guess I need to do the comparison again. I will also call Vortex and ask about this.

I myself have compared my NF, Leupold Mark IV, and Supersniper all side by side and I barely can tell a difference in glass quality.
