Nikon Scopes

[HokieHunter]

I'm curious what you guys think about Nikon scopes. I've thought for years that they were a tremendous value; very bright and clear. The Buckmasters 3-9x40 may be the best $150 scope in the world, IMHO.

What do you guys think about the Nikon line? A great value, a great scope, or not so much of either?

I've heard that if you move your eye to far off center that it blacks out easy but they are bright though.

PERSONALLY...
I have a Nikon Monarch 3-9X40 and I think it is a GREAT scope! Probably as good as any scope out there for around $300.00. Compact size, great optics, and positive w/e adjustments. I give it two thumbs up! :yeah:

I am a Nikon Optics fan. 8x 42MM Monarch ATB binoculars are hard to beat for a delivered price of $230. Comparing my Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x40 to my Bushnell Elite 3200 4-12x, the Nikon has unquestionably better clarity. The Elite is a keeper, but the Nikon presents a brighter and sharper image for the long shot.

I also have a Nikon Monarch UCC 3-9X40 on one of my Knight Elites. The scope is very good and reliable for the money. I believe it compares well with my Leupold VX II's, and not too far from my VX III's. But not in the same league as my Zeiss.

In the $250 range I would stiill consider one for purchase.

I own a Monarch UCC 3-9x40. I love it, for the money, clarity and the waranty I don't think a person can go wrong. I have a uncle that uses Nikons on his 338UM, 375 H&H, and a 378 with no problems. If they will withstand them they will last on just about anything with no problems IMHO.
