I have never owned a Nicon but have had about every other brand on the market and now use all Leupolds. I`m useing a fixed 24X on my .22-6mm right not and am very impressed with it`s preformance. With 80 gr. Serria bullert at 2,900 fps. I set the moa acording to the Serris blistic chart for that bullet and velosity and guessed at the windage. I shot a group 3 1/4 in. at 500 yrds. in a heavy wind that was 1 1/2 in low on point of aim and 5 in. left, didn`t guess the wind to good, but every shot would still have taken a coyote. The only groundhog I`ve shot this year was alittle over 430 yrds. It took me 2 shots as I did not get the wind right on the first shot, alowded 15 in. and needed just over 30 in, but again tracking was right on to what the Serria chart said it should be. Do Nicon`s track that well?
