Nightforce NX8 1-8X24mm F1 is an optic designed to be versatile for carbines and light hunting rifles. Its true 1X magnification provides the opportunity to acquire targets quickly in the same way a red dot would. At 8X magnification, this optic provides clear images from a distance.
The reticle on the Nightforce NX8 is illuminated during daytime to ensure accuracy at any time, and its first focal plane means that the holdover is precise at any magnification. The Power Throw Lever feature facilitates switching between magnifications quickly.
