NIGHTFORCE, C461, NXS - 2.5-10x42mm - ZeroStop - .1 Mil-Radian - DigIllum - PTL - Mil-R

There are only two ways to improve upon the Nightforce 2.5-10 x 32 NXS Compact...one of the most popular, most proven riflescopes. One way is by increasing the size of the objective lens to 42mm, making it even more effective in low light. The other way is by adding new technology, additional features, and more options. Nightforce has done that, too. The result is a riflescope of streamlined proportions, minimal weight, and performance far beyond its size. Actually, beyond most riflescopes of any size.

Instant magnification changes in a fraction of a second, even if you're wearing gloves. Your riflescope arrives with a flush insert, which you can easily replace with the threaded PTL knob. Like so many Nightforce features, the PTL is included on the Compacts at no extra cost.


The Mil-R reticle allows precise ranging and accurate hold offs for effective first-shot placement and quick follow-up shots. This reticle features a floating center crosshair which is 1.0 Mil across, whole, half, .2 and .1 Mil-Radian graduations across the reticle, and a total of 15 Mil-Radian below center.
