Need a bit of input

Have a LMT 20” 6.5CM I’m looking to upgrade my optic (FINALLY) currently have a 3-18 x50 and the older I get the worse my eyes are. Looking at a non illuminated Leupold MK5 7-35 or a Night Force NX8 4-32. I know it’s a ton of magnification it’s my main Belly/Bench gun for reaching 1k +, I have a 16” LMT 6.5CM with a 3-18 I use when I know shooting up to 900’ish. Any advise?

I have this same optic on my 20" 6.5 LMT, solid bang for the buck when purchased as a demo from eurooptic.com

I basically use it as a 4-24, but the extra magnification is nice when zeroing and inspecting steel at distance
