What is Nightforce’s Warranty

It is a transferable Limited Lifetime Warranty that covers mechanical defects in materials and workmanship in the optical and mechanical components of the riflescope. In the event of a defect in materials or workmanship that is covered by this warranty, we will either repair the riflescope or replace it at no charge with a comparable product at our discretion. This warranty excludes intentional or accidental damage, abuse, misuse, unauthorized modifications or repairs, and improper mounting. This warranty does not cover any consequential or incidental damages resulting from the inability to use the riflescope. Any serial number obliteration or alteration on the product will void the warranty. SHV™ models maintain waterproof integrity with their protective caps installed.

First focal plane vs. Second Focal plane (F1 vs. F2)

F2 or Second Focal plane Nightforce Reticles appear the same size throughout the magnification range, but changing the magnification does change the hash marks on the reticle in relation to the target. With an F1 or First focal plane scope, the reticle will grow or shrink based on magnification level, meaning that you are essentially zooming into the reticle

Nightforce Optics Authorized Online Dealer

In 1992, Nightforce Optics began its journey to becoming one of the best in optics manufacturing. Nightforce quickly made a name for itself, designing and manufacturing some of the most durable optics with consistent tracking and stellar glass performance. In addition, they have been responsible for developing and manufacturing quality optics and consistently producing some of the best accessories, including Nightforce Rings, Nightforce Spotting Scopes, and Nightforce Mounts. The attention to detail, quality control, and testing that Nightforce does before a scope leaves its facility is second to none.

Riflescopes must endure repeated impacts of over 1200 Gs of force on multiple axes during their impact tests. After each severe impact, the riflescope is hand-checked for tracking accuracy and overall integrity. Every scope that leaves their facility and ends up in a customer's hands has been looked over and thoroughly tested by a skilled and experienced team member at Nightforce. Nightforce Optics Reticles include the Mil XT, MOAR/MOAR-T, Tremor 3 Illuminated/Non-Illuminated, Mil-R, Mil-C F-1/F-2, FC-Mil, FC-DMX, Ddr-2, FC-Dm, FCR-1, Forceplex, Horus H59- Illuminated/Non-illuminated, Mil-CF2/Mil-CF2D, and Mil-R.
