Description
The most powerful of our SHV™ series performs beautifully at both close and extended ranges on varmints, big game, and for making tight groups on paper.
You get outstanding clarity, crispness and color contrast at every magnification setting. It features a full 80 MOA of elevation adjustment, side parallax adjustment and ZeroSet™ technology which allows a quick return to your initial zero setting, regardless of how many elevation adjustments you’ve made.
It’s tough, reliable and big calibers won’t bother it. The SHV™ 5-20×56 won’t bother your finances too much, either.

Reticles
- Forceplex™
The Nightforce Forceplex™ reticle was created by and for hunters. Designed with direct customer feedback, it is simple and uncomplicated, with a clean, unobstructed field of view. The fourplex design has long been prized by hunters around the world for the way the heavier lines center your eye quickly on the target…yet we’ve made no compromises on precision, with 0.125 MOA thick center crosshairs that allow precise shot placement on the smallest target—even at extended distances.
The Nightforce Forceplex™ is available in illuminated and non-illuminated versions, depending upon the SHV™ riflescope you choose. It is superb in low-light environments, and will serve you well on any game, from the dense forests of North America to the vast plains of Africa. - Forceplex™ – Non-Illuminated

Combined with a floating center crosshair, this makes for a reticle extremely fast and easy to use in the field. MOAR™ reticles in Nightforce 5.5-22x and 8-32x NXS models have a 20 MOA scale below centerline (at left). Reticles in 3.5-15x models have an additional 10 MOA scale below center.
The elevation and windage marks can be used for ranging objects when the size of the target is known. Bracket the target from top to bottom or side to side within the marks. Distance to target can then be determined using this formula:
Target size in inches ÷ Image size (moa) x 95.5 = range in yards.
For field expedient ranging inside of 500 yards, a constant of 100 can be used in place of 95.5.
Please note that accurate rangefinding with the MOAR™ reticle can only be accomplished at the power settings shown above. - MOAR™ – 20 MOA Center Illumination
