Wednesday, August 31st, 2016

NFO2016TwoGun-0974

This past weekend concluded the 2016 Nightforce Precision Tactical 2 Rifle Match. The match was a success for unveiling and proofing a new match format, one where competitors fire both carbines and precision rifles on the same stages. This was a field match, held across the Coal Canyon area of the NRA Whittington Center. Targets and shooting positions were placed across the natural terrain instead of on a traditional square range.

Competitors fired over 200 rounds of carbine and up to 100 rounds of precision rifle across the 10 stages. Carbine targets ranged from as close as 3 yards to as far as 400 yards. Precision rifle targets ranged between 300 and 890 yards. At the start of each stage, all competitors had to carry their gear and configure their rifles and shooting positions on the clock.

New Nightforce Competition SR Fixed 4.5 x 24 Ready for Service Rifle Competition

Thursday, June 16th, 2016

The popularity of Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) and NRA service rifle matches, combined with recent rule changes, have resulted in the new CompetitionTM SR Fixed 4.5 x 24 riflescope by Nightforce.

NFO_CompSRFixed4_angle

The CompetitionTM SR Fixed 4.5 x 24 is purpose-built to comply with 2016 rules that, for the first time, allow the use of riflescopes having a maximum magnification of 4.5x, objective lens diameter to 34mm, and combined weight of optic and service rifle to 11.5 pounds.

NFO_CompSRFixed4_side

The new CompetitionTM SR Fixed 4.5 x 24 is built on a 30mm tube. It provides 100 MOA of both elevation and windage adjustment, in precise .25 MOA increments. The exposed adjustments feature large, easy-to-read engraving, and 20 MOA per revolution. Parallax is fixed at 200 yards, providing a parallax-free image for all service rifle and high power distances. The compact riflescope measures 9.9 inches in length and weighs just 15.4 ounces. It includes patented Nightforce ZeroStopTM technology that allows an instant, positive return to the shooter’s chosen zero setting, regardless of how many elevation adjustments have been made.

NFO_SR-1_Reticle

The SR-1 reticle was created specifically to maximize the new riflescope’s performance. This new, non-illuminated reticle has heavy posts at the 3, 6 and 9 o’clock positions, and a 10 MOA center circle with 8 MOA crosshair which will appear visually familiar to iron sight shooters. It is standard in the CompetitionTM SR Fixed 4.5 x 24.

NFO_CompSRFixed4_Mounted

Nightforce has also introduced the new Unimount™ SR, a rugged, lightweight mounting solution designed specifically to complement the new riflescope and provide the preferred “nose to charging handle” positioning preferred by most service rifle shooters. The Unimount™ SR will fit any 30 mm riflescope, offering 20 MOA of taper while producing the performance of steel at half the weight.

NFO_UnimountSR_Angle

The CompetitionTM SR Fixed 4.5 x 24 will retail at $1950 and the UnimountTM SR will retail at $260. Nightforce CompetitionTM riflescopes are engineered specifically to help shooters not just compete, but to win at any level.
