Description

Nightforce BEAST 5-25×56 F1 Riflescope

Why is the most advanced riflescope on the market today called the Nightforce BEAST 5-25×56. It has nothing to do with size, weight, or appearance. Our engineers were asked to do what was thought impossible…to create a riflescope the likes of which had never been built before. To invent radical new technologies that solve old problems inherent to competitor’s products. It was a challenge so demanding, so taxing, at times so overwhelming, that the concept became known as “a beast,” but when they succeeded, and it came time to give the newest Nightforce riflescope a name, nothing else seemed appropriate. What does that stand for? It stands for “Best Example of Advanced Scope Technology.” Because that’s what it is.

New Standards of Resolution and Clarity.

There are plenty of high-magnification variable power riflescopes on the market. But, magnification without extreme resolving power, razor-sharp clarity and superb contrast— even in dismal light—is of no value. Military snipers are now called upon to positively identify targets and distinguish threats at distances measured in hundreds of meters. The slightest nuance in appearance can, for example, separate a legitimate IED threat from an innocent non-combatant. The optical prescription and glass used in the B.E.A.S.T.™ was created through a collaboration between U.S. and German engineers, who were tasked with achieving resolution and clarity that surpassed that of any riflescope in the world. They succeeded.

Intelligent and Intuitive.

True-to-eye light transmission exceeds 90 percent, with resolution and image clarity at unprecedented levels. XtremeSpeed™ adjustments on a 34mm tube provide 60 MOA (20 Mil-Radians) of adjustment instantly in a single rotation (120 MOA total travel)—meeting, or exceeding, the effective range of any known cartridge at extreme distances.

The heart of the B.E.A.S.T.™ is its i4F™ intelligent four-function elevation control. Initial adjustments with the primary elevation knob are lightning fast, in .50 MOA/.2 Mil-Radian increments. An integral fine adjustment lever provides additional elevation adjustments in .25 MOA/.1 Mil-Radian increments. It is the fastest, most precise elevation control ever conceived on a riflescope. The patented Nightforce ZeroStop™ system, allowing an instant return to the shooter’s established zero point, is standard. A new 360-degree brake control allows instant securing of elevation adjustments.

The B.E.A.S.T.™ includes Nightforce DigIllum™ digital illuminated reticle technology, which has established new standards of convenience and repeatability. The shooter chooses the appropriate illumination setting for lighting conditions, from very dim to extremely bright, and can then turn off illumination to preserve battery power. When illumination is turned back on, it defaults to the shooter’s chosen setting. This ensures that the user’s night vision is not affected and that an instant shot is possible. DigIllum™ also includes a low-battery indicator and auto-off feature.

Applicable To Any Tactical Environment.

At just 15.37″ length, the B.E.A.S.T.™ is very compact relative to its power, allowing friendly attachment of thermal, night vision and other accessories. On today’s battlefield, our servicemen can find themselves in a firefight in a crowded, close-in urban environment, or engaging small targets at extreme distances…all in a single day. Our military requested one riflescope equally adept in every conceivable environment, and the B.E.A.S.T.’s™ 5-25x magnification range provides multi-scope capability in one sophisticated package.

Nightforce flip up lens caps are included with every B.E.A.S.T.™ riflescope.

Now available with the TREMOR 3™ reticle.

RETICLES:

	Horus H59™ Reticle – Illuminated The H59™ reticle is a “field-tuned” version of our H58™ reticle. A widened horizontal grid by one mil for increased wind holdover. And the center cross has been turned into a “broken cross” so groupings are less obscured and more easily seen. Illumination now standard.
	Horus TREMOR3™ Reticle – Illuminated The TReMoR3 reticle is all about faster shooting.  The Accuracy 1st – Speed Shooting Formula is built right into the elevation hold of the reticle making even faster shooting possible.  It’s field-proven to make wind calls easier.  The reticle also allows one to accurately mil targets very quickly. Illuminated version.
	MIL-C™ F1 Reticle Designed to meet the needs of today’s Precision Rifle Series competitor, the MIL-C™ reticle allows for fast and accurate shots on target. The MIL-C™ has a simple center dot for a fine aiming point, while the main lines feature .2 Mil-Radian holds. Each whole Mil-Radian is numbered for fast reference under even stressful conditions.
	MIL-XT™ Designed to meet the needs of today’s precision rifle competitor, the MIL-XT™ reticle allows for fast and accurate shots on target. The MIL-XT™ has a simple center dot for a fine aiming point at center, while the main lines feature .2 Mil-Radian holds. Each whole Mil-Radian is numbered for fast reference under even stressful conditions. Below center, whole Mil-Radian intersections feature a floating dot. Dots are placed at .2 Mil-Radian increments, while whole Mil-Radians are increased in size for fast counting. Additional marks are placed at half Mil-Radian increments as well. Numbers below center alternate in size for easy counting and verification of appropriate hold points. This reticle was designed for the competitive and field shooter, and is certain to give a competitive edge to anyone who uses it.
	MIL-R™ F1 Reticle The MIL-R™ reticle allows precise ranging and accurate hold offs for effective first-shot placement and quick follow-up shots.  This reticle features a floating center crosshair which is 1.0 Mil across, whole, half, .2 and .1 Mil-Radian graduations across the reticle, and a total of 15 Mil-Radian below center.
	MOAR™ F1 The Nightforce MOAR™ reticle is a major advancement in precision shooting. A floating center crosshair two MOA wide and two MOA tall provides a precise aiming point— especially on smaller targets at longer ranges. One-MOA elevation and windage spacings provide for more accurate rangefinding and hold-offs compared to ordinary reticles with coarser markings. The MOAR™ F1 reticle features 1 MOA elevation and windage markings for accurate range finding and hold-offs.  A floating center crosshair and bold 3, 6 and 9 o’clock posts make this reticle fast and easy to use in the field.  This MOAR™ F1 reticle features over 80 MOA of elevation below center and total windage of 40 MOA on most models and 80 MOA on NX8 models.
