Does anyone out there have any experience/opinions with the Nikon pro-staff series of scopes? I have several Nikon Monarch scopes but have not seen the pro staff models. How do they compare? I wonder what the big differences are between the two scope series? Thanks!

The major difference is the lens quality and coatings. I would put it in the same class as the Bushnell Trophy with slightly better clarity and brightness. Actually they are a pretty good scope for the money.

Jon,

Would you rate the Nikon Pro-Staff scopes the same or better in quality compared to a Weaver K-4? I have one of those and the comparison would be helpful. How good is the adjustment system for the Nikon Pro-Staff scopes? Thanks Jon!

From what I have read, the Pro-Staff series are rimfire scopes. Check their website.

scienceguy,

That is a tough one. I think they are really close with maybe a slight edge to the Weaver. But you are comparing a fixed to a variable. The tracking system is the same as the Buckmaster and they see to hold very well. No the ProStaff are not just rimfire. Actually they make a rimfire, shotgun and rifle models.
