I have a NX8 4-32 and a Mark 5 5-25. I have also had 5-25 and 7-35 F1 ATACR'S. If you get an NX8 get the 4-32 as due to its longer design the parallax isn't as finicky (needs to be adjusted anytime you change range). Other scopes parallax are a lot more flexible. I think the Mark 5 is a very solid scope and I would place it above the NX8 but below the ATACR. Parallax is more forgiving. Glass is very good bit that's subjective. Leupold scopes are generally the lightest in their class. Also 35mm tube will give you more adjustments. Looks like Mark 5 prices have dropped with the release of the PR1 and PR2 reticles. Leupold is announcing them Feb 1st I believe. Good luck.
