So range thoughts after about 400 rounds through each, not counting the ammo used to zero. From 3 yds to 300 yds today. Both with 100 yds zeroes.
Nx8: awesome, awesome little optic in a complete package. Everyone's whining about the tight eyebox either doesn't shoot alot or has forgotten just about all scopes before the vortex razor. It's useable all the way to 8x standing unsupported. Zoom ring is smooth and easy to move around. Illumination is perfect even in the gorgeous sunny day I had this morning in jax FL. If you have used a mk6 1-6 before that will give you an idea of your reticle when not illuminated. However, its definitely useable even without illumination. The giant 3 black posts draw your eye directly to your reticle. You can make fine precise hits with the fine reticle at 100 at 1x. Now here's the kicker, the glass is nxs glass. Clear but doesn't pop the colour out. Almost mattes out the vibrant colours I saw today since it was a beautiful sunny day. That is by far the biggest difference between the nx8 and the atacr. Brightness of the sight picture and clarity. Eye box is whatever if you know what you're doing.
Atacr: as I said previously, the best lpvo on the market currently by performance. Amazing colour contrast, clarity, turrets, eye box, eye relief, illumination. It's everything we've all been asking for in one package. If you're a glass snob, a shooter as a vocation, or someone who just wants the best this is it. Everything I said about the nx8 reticle rings true here as well. I took the atacr and the nx8 out to 300 yds today and was hitting my 8in popper. The wind holds were very helpful and well proportioned. The dot in the center of the reticle for both scopes is about 1.5 moa at 100 yds so you understand the scale.
Bottom line. If you don't need the dynamic reticle or the best glass money can buy, get the nx8. If you use guns alot you will appreciate the atacr as the pinnacle of current lpvo tech.
Rifles used in the test were my v7 12.5 LiAl sbr with the nx8 and my mega centurion arms 12.5 sbr with the atacr. Group below is the group I shot while zeroing the atacr. 77 grain imi 10 shot group at 100 shot prone with a magpod.
For those with the kahles. I agree for under 400 there is no need to jump to the nx8. I would say the nx8 is better in everyway than the mk6 1-6 However. I will not be getting rid of my kahles. I prefer the atacr over the kahles even with the decreased fov.
