Gary..now I know what that ole Yote out there feels like when he first hears that squeelin' rabbit!
Your mention of a "new preditor scope" has us all druelling with our ears perked up on "high alert" now just hit us with some follow up squeeks of info & pics on a cool scope and we will all circle down wind to check it out.

The hungryest one of us will run in & check it out...if they like it & survive, we will all come running to share in the goodies.

Cant wait to see how this thing turns out!

All the guys in the EAST that hunt at NIGHT would love for it to have as much light gathering capability as possible. We all look forward to taking a look at it when it comes out. I will be watching for further posts. Thanks for the Info

Partners,
Nikon has asked me to keep the particulars of this scope under wraps until Shot Show. I will be glad to give you the particulars about that time, IF the scope performs in the field as well as it does in theory. If it does not, I am going to act as though we never had this conversation!
Adios,
Gary




Well it's Shot Show time lets hear about this new scope?

I mean to go see Gary & the new scope while I'm here at ShotShow....

I don't think I even made it into that half of the building yesterday. Big Place....over 1800 exhibitors this year.

BTW I'm taking pics of all the PM sponsors that have booths here, & will do write up on the event.

Just looked at the new scope on Nikons website, looks like a buckmaster with camo and new a new reticle? Hope Gary will chime in with some more specs.

Where on the website did you see it? I looked for it last night but could not find it.

Edit: Never mind I got it. Thanks.

I like the camo and the Anti Reflective device. It seems they are great scopes for bolt guns or longer barreled AR's.

Is there a difference in the BDC reticle and the BDC Coyote Reticle?

I was wondering that myself. They indicate the reticle is specific to coyote hunting but they don't show it. They say it is the circle dot pattern that is they same as their regular BDC reticle.

EDIT. Maybe Gary will be along soon to offer some of his insight. I would also like to know if Nikon intends to make a smaller, lighter, 2x7 version for AR's with shorter length barrels.

Yes i would like to see one that starts at about 1.5X or 2X and go's up to 6X or 8X with a 42mm 0r 44mm objective.

As it stands nikons 1.5X to 6X by 42 monark gold scope is the best coyote scope i have used.

Heres a link for those that want to see them...
Figured I'd make it easy on people cause it takes a while to get to Nikon's appropriate website.

Would definitely make a nice upgrade scope for the Savage predators, or Remington Predator models since it's available in mossy oak brush.

If Nikon's true to form, the catalog will have all the subtensions and picture of the reticle in it. Their catalog has one of the best Tech. Spec. info in the business.

To be honest I was expecting more from a coyote specific scope. Some of the features are great and I'm sure it will perform flawlessly like their others optics.

+1 Gary

I'd have to see the new reticle but nothing else I saw on the Nikon website impressed me that much about the new predator hunting scope over a non-predator Nikon scope. I would much rather have the Nikon Monarch Gold 1x6x42 that I have now.
