If Sightron was a better scope than Nightforce you would still have a bunch of people swearing black and blue that the NF was "hands down better" and "no comparison". It's so they can justify to themselves that the extra money was worth it.
The next lot of FFP sightrons have the mildot with 1/2 hash reticle. If only they done a zero stop.
I wanted a setup that would do the job well everytime for as little money as possible, so I bought a Savage and put a Sightron 6-24x on it. From the little experience I've had with NF I don't think they are twice as good as a Sightron, I couldn't justify spending the extra money on such little improvement.
However if the Sightron wasn't available then I would have bought a NF and it would have been justified to me. NF are great scopes but as for value compared to Sightron, no way.
