RETICLEVELOCITY 1000 - Nightforce Optics

1 RETICLEVELOCITY 1000 .. Available in: Nightforce and NXS riflescopes Precise shot placement to 1000 yards Eliminates estimating holdover or counting elevation adjustments Matched to the specific ballistic profile of your chosen rifle and load Vastly superior to one size fits all drop compensating reticles 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
