    Ive got a nighteater 3 - 10 x 44. It is very difficult to adjust the knob that changes it from 3 - 10 magnification. Thought it was clear until i looked through my mates zeiss conquest ( more expensive i know). Also have had major problems at the range when sighting in... wont track properly. Am returning it to Mialls gunshop who will replace it with another.. Hope the new one is good.

    The Nikko Sterling Platinum Nighteater is easy to use! Zoom ring turns easily, as opposed to the Leupold 3-9X40 I have. My nighteater is the 3-10X42 and is on a T3 .223. I use it for spotlighting and take shots out to a couple of hundred metres with it. I'm thinking about getting a bit more magnification for this rifle, maybe out to 16. The current scope will go onto my next rifle - a .17HMR. My next scope will be a 4-16 Nighteater

    The Nikko Sterling Platinum Nighteater has quick and easy adjustments, excellent focus at distance, and excellent zoom.

    I use a Nikko Sterling Platinum Nighteater 6 -24 x on my T3 Tactical 300WM with muzzlebreak. Has held zero so far for 3 years which suprised me as I thought it might shake apart. It is used for all my shooting including pig busting where I empty 2 mags asap here and there

    The Nikko Sterling Platinum Nighteater telescopic sight is a good value for money scope. Goes on centrefire rifles just as good as rim or air supurb bit of kit. Unfortunately clarifty is not the best though.

    Great value for money! Its Under £200 and performs like a scope over £800, I had a Leupold on my .243 and i bought this for my .17hmr and within weeks had sold my leupold and bought another one of these. Some models have got to focus wheel, as they are really useful!

    I have a Nikko Sterling Platinum 6-24X56 AGIR that has the Mil dot illuminated reticle on a Rem. 700 .300 WSM and has kept its zero after 1000 rounds. Glass is from Japan and is very clear when shooting 700 yards. It came with a 5 inch sunshade and side adjustment big wheel. With my Bell & Carlson A5 stock and Harris bipod, the Nikko scope completes my rifle.

    I got my nighteater close to 2 years ago. Mine is the 6-24x44. I currently have it mounted on my savage 17hmr. The scope is VERY clear and lets in plenty of light even when zoomed in all to way. I just wish that I would have got a mildot reticle instead of my fine crosshair. The range focus / parallax correction feature is a great plus. The scope is much more rugged than I would have expected.

    In this price range this scope must be very much value for your money.

    Using this on .22 rimfire rifle fitted with bipod. 24x zoom with paralax makes great for long range shots with high velocity rounds ( right out to 150 metres {range from paralax side wheel}. thourally recomended.

    The Niko Sterling Platinum Nighteater is an excellent telescopic sight, the price is possible the only bad point but i can get over that. I recommend this sight for all uses.

    I love it. Its a different experience and worth every penny. An all time good buy.I would have appreciated it if they had explained the need for rings on an elevated mount though, which I had to purchase separately, and so delayed the fun. All in all a must.

    The Nighteater is an excellent scope. 8-32 x 44mm means the target can be aquired then Zoomed in on. Parallax is a must at this sort of magnification and the Nighteater has parallax set on a turret as opposed to the scope front, this enables the parallax to be adjusted with the target acquired.

    The scope is best used as a target scope although with practice it handles hunting vermin very well.

    The parallax reading becomes very difficult after 35yds as the increments become smaller, it woul ...
