Nikon rifle scopes
Hello,
I am wondering how good are the nikon Monarch rifle scopes?
I ONLY used Leupold for over 10 years and found them to be flawless
even in hard core use/abuse ,Now i need a super quality fixed 4X with a 40mm objective and Nikon is one of the only ones to have one
Of course without mentioning the "Budjet" scopes which i DONT use.
Any Experience with this scope would be appreciated, Also i am mounting this scope on a Remington 7600 in 3006 which is going to be used for WOODS hunting Deer with the possible 100 yard shot ,Good choice?

(Buckmaster-Monark). Anyone have or hear of any experience with the new generation Nikon scopes that are made in the Philippines ? They are reasonably priced but I wonder the quality of wokmanship. 0 -
I have nikon buckmater work great, at first BUT Not working now having to fight with nikon to get new. poor service They seem care about Camera and that stuff, the scope been there twice and going back again. Check into Burris or millett. 0 -
Nikon makes great stuff. Poor service is not typical with them either, but repairs are always subject to lapses in a country where people are ashamed to work with their hands.

We have a Monarch on my wifes .280, they are excellent scopes, clear bright and a really good value.

I never owened a nikon scope so I cant offer my wisdom on there scopes, But have owened several sets of zoom binoculars by nikon.
I sent them a pair of zoom binoculars ( 15 years old ) once to get re-aligned, They had double vision, you would see two of an object. They sent me a bill in the mail for labor and return shipping costs totaling 18.00 , When the binoculars returned in the mail, Instead of fixing my old pair they sent me a brand new pair of zoom binoculars of there current version of what I sent in. Needless to say I was very happy with the service on that deal. It was only a short turn around time too.

Nikon is a great scope, particularly their Monarch UCC series. I'm not really impressed with their "Buckmaster" line, but really like the top end models. I have a Monarch 2x7x32mm matte just waiting for the right rifle.( or the right amount of money) That scope is outstanding for such a compact size. This is the second Nikon monarch that I've owned and I would recommend them without reservations. 0 -
I have a monarch. It had fuzzy crosshairs. I bought it in the US. Nikon Canada wouldn't service it. NIKON USA wouldn't accept it for repair beacuse they wouldn't return it to me in Canada
I have said it before and I'll say it again. NIKON service SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This happens with all Nikon products, cameras, binoc's lenses.
I avoid Nikon like the plague now. I like my Leupold's but I am very impressed with a Bushnell Elite 3200 that I recently bought(for the price)0 -
Leupold still makes a 4x scope, as well as Burris. Burris also makes a compact 4x. You might also want to check out the new Weavers. Personally, I like the Burris scopes, consider them one of the best buys for the dollars spent. 0 -
The Monarch is a very fine scope. My top choice is Burris.

Have a Buckmaster on a rifle I aquired used.
Liked it so well I thought I'd try a Monarch model.
Seems to me like the Buckmaster is clearer.
