    Post Seeking Advice: ZEISS Conquest V6 3-18 vs. Nightforce NX8 2.5-20

    Hey everyone,

    I'm looking to upgrade the scope on my hunting rifle and I'm torn between two options: the ZEISS Conquest V6 3-18 and the Nightforce NX8 2.5-20 (second focal plane). I’d love to hear your thoughts on which one might be a better choice.

    Additionally, I have a family friend who owns the Nightforce NX6, and he's curious about how it compares to the NX8 series. If anyone has experience with both the NX6 and NX8, could you shed some light on the differences and which one might offer better performance?

    Thanks in advance for your input!

    Owned both and the Zeiss has far better glass, weighs less. Has thick reticles and the windage isn’t capped

    Nightforce has better everything else but weighs more and the glass isn’t as nice
