Engineered for Precision and Clarity
The Nightforce ATACR Zero Stop SFP 7-35x56mm riflescope sets a new benchmark in long-range optics by combining advanced optical engineering with rugged mechanical performance. Designed for military, competitive, and dedicated precision shooters, this scope offers a crystal-clear image across an expansive magnification range. Its distinctive ED glass elements, coupled with Nightforce’s proprietary optical coatings, deliver superior resolution and color fidelity, making faint targets stand out even in low-light conditions. With a proven track record in competitive leagues like the Precision Rifle Series and real-world field applications, the ATACR is the ultimate tool for serious marksmen.
Extra-Low Dispersion Glass for Maximum Clarity
At the heart of the ATACR 7-35x56mm is a premium ED glass package that dramatically reduces chromatic aberration and yields razor-sharp target definition from edge to edge. The scope’s optical design ensures consistent light transmission, maintaining high contrast and brightness even at the highest magnification settings. Enhanced anti-reflective coatings on every lens surface eliminate glare and ghosting, resulting in a bright, clear sight picture throughout dawn and dusk. Whether you’re engaging steel at 300 yards or dialing for extreme long-range targets, the Nightforce ED glass provides the visual precision required to make each shot count.
Expansive Magnification and Wide Field of View
With a versatile 7-35x magnification range, the ATACR scope bridges the gap between close-quarters precision and distant target acquisition. At the low 7x setting, shooters benefit from a wide field of view, rapid target acquisition, and fast follow-up shots. Cranking up to 35x reveals minute details on distant objects, allowing for precise shot placement on small or hard targets. The scope maintains a generous field of view throughout the zoom range, ensuring you never lose sight of your target as you transition between magnification levels.
ZeroStop Turret System for Instant Return to Zero
The signature ZeroStop elevation turret provides a dependable reference point for rapid return to your original zero after sight-in adjustments. A robust stop collar locks out unwanted downward travel and resets to zero with a positive click. The tactile, audible turret action features 100 MOA of total elevation travel, enabling extreme adjustments for long-range ballistics or high-angle shooting. Each 0.1 MIL click value offers precise repeatability, giving shooters confidence that every shot will land exactly where intended.
Second Focal Plane Reticle and Parallax Control
Positioned in the Second Focal Plane (SFP), the MOA or MIL-based reticle maintains consistent size and line weight, delivering clear aiming points without cluttering the sight picture. Pilots and precision shooters will appreciate the straightforward reticle design that simplifies holdover and windage corrections at any magnification. The side-mounted parallax adjustment knob focuses down to 10 meters, ensuring a parallax-free image for both close-range drills and extreme long-distance engagements. This feature is indispensable for competitive precision shooters and hunters alike.
Rugged Construction and Weatherproof Performance
Built around a 34 mm monolithic aircraft-grade aluminum tube, the ATACR riflescope is engineered for maximum strength and rigidity. Its hard-anodized matte black finish resists abrasion, chemicals, and corrosion, while O-ring seals provide complete waterproof, fogproof, and dustproof performance. The scope withstands extreme recoil and environmental stresses, ensuring reliable operation in the field, on the range, or in combat conditions. Whether you’re facing arctic temperatures or desert heat, the Nightforce ATACR remains dependable.
Optimized for Precision Rifle Series and ELR Competitions
Precision Rifle Series (PRS) competitors and Extreme Long Range (ELR) shooters demand optics that deliver both speed and accuracy. The ATACR 7-35x56mm answers this call with smooth magnification adjustment, a fast focus eyepiece, and an intuitive control layout. ZeroStop allows for quick reference between base elevation and target-specific holdovers. This riflescope’s clarity, tracking, and repeatability put you on par with the world’s top marksmen, empowering you to push your skills and equipment to their limits.
Versatile Tactical and Hunting Applications
Beyond competition, the ATACR excels in tactical, law enforcement, and big-game hunting roles. Town-range precision, long-range bullet drop compensation, and rapid engagement capabilities make it ideal for any mission requiring pinpoint accuracy. Hunters pursuing large game at extended ranges benefit from the scope’s light-gathering power and reliable focus, enabling ethical shot placement on deer, elk, or plains game. The scope’s rugged build stands up to the harshest field conditions, from mountain hunts to tactical operations.
Easy Integration and Mounting Options
Nightforce’s standardized 34 mm tube diameter allows seamless compatibility with a wide range of high-strength mount systems. Whether using precision quick-detach rings or one-piece mounts, installation is straightforward and repeatable. The scope’s length and weight distribution ensure proper balance when mounted on modern chassis systems and lightweight carbon-fiber platforms, preserving the rifle’s handling characteristics.
Maintenance, Warranty, and Customer Support
Nightforce optics are backed by a industry-leading lifetime warranty, covering defects in materials and workmanship for the original owner. Regular maintenance is simple—clean lenses with a soft brush and microfiber cloth, avoid solvents on O-rings, and verify turret function periodically. Nightforce’s dedicated support team and global network of service centers stand ready to assist with adjustments, repairs, or mount recommendations, ensuring your ATACR remains a lifelong asset.

Optics for Texas hunting and carry
Scopes, red dots and thermal optics ship straight to your Texas address with no restriction. Most Texas hog hunting happens at night on private land, where lights and thermal optics are legal, so a thermal or a clip-on is the most useful upgrade on a hog rifle. A 3-9x or 4-12x scope covers a whitetail blind, and an optics-ready pistol slide takes a carry dot. Mount it properly and zero it with the load you will hunt or carry.
