All Nikko seem to have been revamped and radically re-designed, the Targetmaster being a prime example. Incidentally all models come with a 100mm sunshade and push-on, see-thru, flip-up lens covers. The build shows a 30mm, alloy, one-piece body tube. 
All adjustment rings have what can best be termed as ‘aggressive knobbly edged grips’ which extends to the large turrets, side parallax dial and even the 11-setting rheostat. The 1/8” MOA, locking turrets offer 50-clicks per turn and 16-full revolutions, which gives a maximum 100 MOA @ 100-yards. You’ll not run out of adjustment with this optic.
Once you’ve set zero and locked the turrets you can re-set them to 0 by slacking off the slot head screw on top of the turrets. Side Focus The side-parallax is sensibly marked for 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, 500 yards and infinity. From 10-25-yds there’s room to mark a few other ranges to suit your eye. But for those wanting a more precise and faster adjuster there’s an optional 100mm or 150mm side-wheel available.
Does anyone have any experience with the riflescope brand Nikko Stirling. Alot of guys in my area have switched to the Nighteater Models. The local gunshop owners says it compares to Zeiss or Swarovski.
The ETE Mirolux lens coatings have really proved themselves allowing maximum light transmission giving a very high level of clarity, contrast and being ideal for dawn and dusk use. The eyepiece is quite lengthy and has a fast focus ocular and zoom ring with a raised hub for ease of use. I’ve used this scope for many tests and on my own rifles from air rifle to a.223 Rem. Eye relief is a relatively lengthy 3.5 - 4” which will suit most shooters, so no worries for those shooting recoiling air rifles or fi rearms. As I’ve mentioned in the past the LRX reticule, which is in the 1st focal plane is ideal for airgun use and just as useful for fi rearms, once you’ve sussed the layout of the multi-hash lines and their corresponding ranges and aim points. • click on image to enlarge • click on image to enlarge • click on image to enlarge • click on image to enlarge • click on image to enlarge The 4. 16 X 44 LRX Targetmaster is a superb design, it has proved reliable and helped me achieve good bags and accounted for more than a few foxes.
All in all this is one high quality, well featured optic. For Bombproof build quality, fully featured and versatile Against Not a lot Verdict A good scope from a proven company that will suit most shooters looking for a slightly higher spec PRICE: £254.99 incl sunshade.
