Where did you find it for that price?

Exactly. My eyes are 66 and 56 years old respectively. One is newer because its had a lens replaced because of a cataract. My shooting eye is the older one, and a bit tired. So, I figured that this 'scope would maybe give me a sharper picture until I get the second eye done (if ever).

Recently I have been noticing that focussing on both the animal and the reticle at the same time was becoming a bit out of sync, so saw this as a useful remedy.
Plus, I've always wanted a Nightforce.

google.

I meant to say a bit over, $955 across the ditch

Blooded tonight.

Now you own and hunt with a Nightforce you MUST state ALL related ballistic information used to make those shots, including distance in mm...

Range: Under 20 yards
Bullet: 140 Berger
Powder: BLC2
Calibre: 7-08
Rifle: Sako A7
Suppressor: DPT
Producer: Me
Director: Brian

More importantly what is the tactical sack for?

Can we have just 1 photo of Brian smiling? Have you got any?

Nice scope. Proven in the field

$955 from Oz ($AUS?) + freight + GST + customs would equate similar to what you paid

The tactical sack was so that we could dispose of all evidence and leave no trace of us ever having
been there.

It wasn't exactly hard core hunting.

You could have saved a few bob and got a tasco for those shots.

Or iron sights...

@Tahr based on your current trends and requirements I would be willing to consider a straight swap for my .44Mag Rossi??? Deadly within 60metres!
That scope of yours would definitely be an overkill for the type of hunting that I do however I would more than willing to help out a fellow Knife loving, scope hugging sharp shooter like yourself
Nice scope. Nice deer.
