    I was considering the FX1000 also, but this is the second thread I've come across that had a bad review of that scope. Thanks for the update!

    I was all set on that scope, but cam across MANY threads critical of the tracking and other issues. Sage Rat's experience was enough to switch me over to the Vortex. And it's a shame, I really liked that Nikon 6x24 and had high hopes for it....

    Well, the Nikon FX1000 is gone... (Thank God)! Replacement Optic is the Athlon Ares BTR 4.5-27x50.... Will report back on results from this one as it just came in today (Updated version even). It was a little more expensive, but I felt I had to move up a tier from the Nikon...

    Tracking is #1, that is why I always recommend the Burris XTR2 for an under $1000 scope.
