Well Jeff told me that my Muzzleloader will be done in a few weeks.The last thing I need to buy for it is a scope.Does anyone have an opinion on the Nightforce SHV line of scopes? I don't have anywhere around me to actually look through one.From what I see on the Net,I think I would prefer the IHR reticle over the MOAR reticle.Is anyone currently using a SHV? I do actually have a Bushnell Elite 6500 2.5-16x50 that I could put on it if need be.Do the experts here believe the Nightforce to be a better suited scope for the ML? Thank you..............

I have an ATACR on my Hankins SML and I love it. Night force makes good stuff. I think you would like the Nightforce you at looking at. Kyle

I haven't used the SHV but have used a lot of NF optics, both BR and NXS. I like the MOAR reticle if I have to use MOA. I think if you don't need a tank of a scope then the SHV well probably fill the bill nicely.

I have looked through the SHV several times but have not bought one. I really like the looks of the IHR reticle for hunting. I would probably already have one if they made the 4-14 or 5-20 in a 44mm or 50mm objective. If you don't need the higher magnification the 3-10x42 would be a really nice scope.

The NF scopes are very good on ML's , I have a NXS 5.5-22 and an ATACR with the moar-t reticle and love it. I looked at the SHV at the Harrisburg Sportsmen Show in PA. this year and I think that one of them will be my next scope purchase.

The rumor I heard was that the SHVs are built with pretty much the same parts as the Weaver Super Slams. You do get the better reticles and I do like low profile covered turrets on a hunting rifle.

I like my bushnell 6500 elite. I have it on my 50bmg and so far it's withstood about 250rds. If I had one laying around I wouldn't hesitate to put it on a muzzleloader......50 or 42 mm? 50mm would be a little big on a Muzzy though.
