Nightforce NX6 3-18×50 F1

The Ultimate Precision Hunting Scope

The NX6 3-18×50 F1 occupies a unique position in the Nightforce lineup.

It bridges the gap between:

✔ Traditional hunting scopes

✔ Precision rifle optics

✔ Modern SPR-style optics

Why First Focal Plane?

The NX6 F1 is built around a:

First Focal Plane Reticle

Unlike SFP scopes, the reticle scales proportionally with magnification.

Benefits include:

✔ Accurate holdovers at all magnifications

✔ Faster engagement of varying distances

✔ More efficient practical shooting

✔ Simplified wind corrections

✔ Improved long-range capability

For hunters who may need to shoot quickly at unknown distances, FFP reticles provide a significant real-world advantage.

FC-MRx™ Reticle

At the heart of the NX6 F1 is the:

FC-MRx™ Reticle

Purpose-built for modern precision shooting.

Features include:

✔ Illuminated centre aiming point

✔ Tree-style holdover system

✔ Wind hold references

✔ Precise elevation grid

✔ Fast target transitions

The FC-MRx™ was designed to remain usable at low magnification while offering the precision expected from a dedicated long-range optic.

This makes it ideal for:

• Precision hunting

• PRS-style field matches

• Recreational long-range shooting

• Professional applications

Exposed FieldSet™ Elevation Turret
