Scope advice, please

Nightforce NX8 2.5-20x50 F1 Mil-XT or Element Optics NEXUS GEN 2 4-25×50 FFP APR-2D MRAD? Which one would you recommend? Both are almost the same price…I know Nightforce but am hearing very good things about Element Optics

I have the Nightforce NX8 and can’t imagine a better built scope. With that being said, I haven’t used the other so not sure which is better.

I bought the element titan and have been IMPRESSED. Element scopes are heavy if that matters.

Use case is definitely a big one.

Love the NX8, just can’t beat that mag range and weight.

I have both. The NX8 came with my Fierce but I swapped it with a Leupold VX5 because I wanted something lighter. I bought the Nexus for my RPR and quickly realized how handy the tooless turret adjustments are. I like all three and assign them base on use case… the VX5 where I want lighter weight, the Element where I shoot more long range and possibly a higher variety of ammo and the NX8 where I’m ok with weight but want a little more robustness.
