Behind the Brand

We would like to introduce you to our Founder and Owner Dr. Raymond Dennis as well as some of the team members at our Orofino, Idaho headquarters. We are happy to share this inside look at our company culture and our 30+ year history. These, and many other passionate people are integral in the making of our Rugged, Reliable and Repeatable Nightforce optics.

On The Range | 2024 PRS Pro Series Finale

On November 1st, the world’s top 232 PRS competitors gathered in Mountain Home, Idaho, for the 2024 PRS Pro Series Finale. Battling challenging weather conditions, these elite shooters fought for the coveted Golden Bullet. Among them was Nightforce ambassador Austin Buschman, armed with his custom 25 GT rifle and ATACR 7-35x56mm F1. With his iconic hat, he set his sights on bringing the Golden Bullet home to Oklahoma.

Ice Block Torture Test

Witness the rugged reliability of Nightforce optics in the Ice Block Torture Test. Frozen for 24 hours, blasted by a 12-gauge shotgun at 7 yards, used as a hammer, and remounted to hit the target at 100 yards, our NXS 5.5-22x50 scope proves it can withstand the most extreme conditions. No edits, no shortcuts—just raw performance you can trust.
