Introducing the NX6™, a lightweight and versatile family of riflescopes designed for hunters, tactical shooters, and competitors.

The NX6™ Riflescope Family
The NX6™ family comes equipped with the new FieldSet™ turret system, maintaining Nightforce’s legendary repeatability in an easy-to-use, configurable design. The dial and stop position of the exposed FieldSet™ can be quickly reset in a single action using just about any field expedient tool you have in your pocket or range bag. The capped configuration can be easily converted to an exposed dial, based on the shooter’s preferences. If desired, the exposed dials can be swapped for Bullet Drop Compensating (BDC) dials, which are custom-engraved to your specific ballistic information.

In addition to offering several of their most popular reticles, Nightforce has introduced six new designs specifically developed to maximize the capability of the NX6™ family. Many of these reticles, such as the 4A-i, FVR-1™, and MOA-C™, are purpose-built for hunters to provide unobstructed views and precise aimpoints. The FC-6c™ Bullet Drop Compensating (BDC) reticle is designed for multi-gun competitors and is optimized for distances to 600 yards with match .223 ammunition. The NX6™ 2-12x42mm F1 has the new FC-MRx™ reticle, a derivative of the popular FC-DMx™ optimized for longer distances, and this magnification range.
Nightforce Optics will be showcasing the NX6™ family of riflescopes, as well as all their other optic families, at SHOT Show 2026, Booth 10544.
