NightForce has just added a new member to the ATACR family called the 4-20×50 F1. To be honest, this is probably my favorite magnification range as it suits almost every spectrum where your rifle can be used. The ATACR 4-20×50 F1 scope has the following four reticle options: Horus TREMOR3, MIL-XT, MOAR F1 and MIL-C F1 (depending on if you prefer MILs or MOAs).
Here is the product introduction from Nightforce:
ATACR 4-20×50 F1
New for 2021, the 4-20×50 F1 fills an important magnification range in the ATACR line. Equally at home atop a bolt action or a semi-automatic rifle, the 4-20×50 F1 is smaller and lighter than the 5-25×56 F1 while offering a 25% improvement in magnification over the 4-16×42 F1. With Digillum, a ZeroStop turret, power throw lever, ED lenses, and 20x max magnification, the ATACR 4-20×50 F1 is our apex mid-power scope.

You can see the MIL-XT and MOAR F1 reticles below, for the other two, please check here.
Designed to meet the needs of today’s precision rifle competitor, the MIL-XT™ reticle allows for fast and accurate shots on target.
The MIL-XT™ has a simple center dot for a fine aiming point at center, while the main lines feature .2 Mil-Radian holds. Each whole Mil-Radian is numbered for fast reference under even stressful conditions.

The Nightforce MOAR™ reticle is a major advancement in precision shooting. A floating center crosshair two MOA wide and two MOA tall provides a precise aiming point— especially on smaller targets at longer ranges. One-MOA elevation and windage spacings provide for more accurate rangefinding and hold-offs compared to ordinary reticles with coarser markings.
MOAR™ F1
The illumination is what Nightforce calls DigIllum, which is a digital reticle illumination technology. You can choose your illumination to suit your lighting conditions in either red or green, with five intensities from very dim to extremely bright. To save battery, it shuts off after 1 hour automatically, or manually of course.
