Buy the rifle and do whatever you want with the optics.

Their cams do not always return to zero. They are also equivalently priced.
Also look into Vortex, they are giving Nightforce and even S&B a run for their money

I like Nightforce too but it wasn't an option from Barrett when I purchased the rifle.

p.s. Leupold over Night Force any day of the week. That is from first hand real world use.

The twist is 1 in 15 on a 29" barrel. The trigger pull is factory set but I've never checked it sorry. I'll get the scale out tomorrow when I go into the shop and post it up for you.

I would have too much fun with this here in Texas, shame I don't have the money. Good luck with the sale, let me know when you are ready to trade for a first born.

Leupold is very good. However Leupold is an optics company specializing in HUNTING optics. They have a very small foray into the tactical market.
Night force is only tactical. Night force also uses etched glass instead of a wire for the crosshairs.
As I said, Leupold is very good, but they do have cam issues. The cams that control their windage and elevation adjustments do not always return to zero.
I know this from real world experience.
S&B is still better than either

Sorry for the delay I had a busy weekend. The trigger pull read between 4 and 4.5 lbs.
