SKU: 117-NF-ATACR-4-16x42-F1
Manufacturer: Nightforce Optics

This U.S.-made scope matches anything I have seen from Europe or Asia, at significant savings. Rock-solid, perfect lenses, ideal reticle, and a perfect illumination system for low light shooting. I mounted this on my LaRue Predator and had no issues hitting a 2/3 metal man at 740 yds in 12-15 mph total value winds. The reticle tracks perfectly, and adjustments are spot on. I dialed up and down and held for wind. The recorded misses (four in 27 rounds) were when winds increased/decreased as the bullet was launched. The reticle illumination was excellent when the sun/shadow made the target/reticle hard to see( no white targets; mine are fully camo painted). I would have this scope on every rifle I own if I could afford the pickup-load I would need. Another is in my future. Don't hesitate, buy it.

I just bought this Nightforce ATACR 4-16x42 f1 scope and mounted it on my Remington 700, 7mm-08 rifle, using the Nightforce rail and mounts. This is the second Nightforce scope I own; I also have the 2.5X10X42. The ATACR scope is truly a heavy-duty scope, and it is heavy and oversized, but the quality is incredible. Nightforce did not miss any of the details on this scope. Aside from the Zero Stop function, it also has a locking feature on the elevation turret to help prevent it from turning accidentally. The windage turret has a removable cover to prevent it from being accidentally turned. The numbers on the elevation turret are large enough that my 62-year-old eyes don't need my glasses to see them. Nightforce has also engineered two excellent scope covers that beat the heck out of your ordinary scope covers. They are incredibly rugged and well designed. I also love the illuminated reticle. If you are looking for a great quality scope, this one won't disappoint you.

I bought this scope after about six months of reviewing and comparing. My most significant need is the ability to redial zero very quickly and easily. I got the scope mounted and sighted in at 100 yards. I was then able to dial out to 1200 yards with first or second shot hits. I then came back through various distances and target sizes. All were accurate, and the movement on the turrets was nice and crisp.

I went all out and bought the MOAR 4-16 F1 for my sig 516, which iknow is excessive, but for anyone out there wondering if this scope is too much for my ar, the answer is no. do you need this much scope for your AR? NO, but if you want to get the top of the line, this is it. The green and red illumination are incredible, especially during daylight; the four-power and first focal plane is the most excellent scope picture I have ever seen; for those wondering, I have a 16" barrel and got this along with a nightforce unmount 1.44," and the sight picture and fit are perfect. The weight is just right; If you want the best scope on the market in my opinion over us optic, this is it.

I use this atacr 4-16x42 f1 scope on a 7saum and can't say anything negative about it. It tracks true and is very repeatable with the zero stop. The zero stop feature allows you to dial .8 mils below zero, which is useful if you shoot multiple hand loads. The scope is built like a tank. The only thing I would have liked would have been a higher range of magnification and a little less weight but all of that is in the scope specs so you can't complain.

This is my second Nightforce scope. Image quality is excellent; tracking is spot on and has never failed to return to zero. This The Nightforce ATACR 4-16x42 f1 doesn't have a zero stop but has something a whole lot better in my opinion. It has a zero lock. When turning the elevation turret back down to zero, it not only stops but locks. You don't have to worry about the elevation turret getting inadvertently moved. A readily accessible button releases the turret when you are ready to dial-up (or down). Unlike a zero stop, which must be set below your zero if you want to be able to dial down below your zero, this is settable at your true zero and still allows you to dial below zero (up to two mils) should you need to. The rest of the scope is all Nightforce, buy once, cry once. Should I need (and can afford!) another scope, it will be a Nightforce.
