Anybody have any reviews on the Nightforce SHV lineup? I am looking at scopes for a couple centerfire builds. Read a few reviews on LongRangeHunting that were very positive. For a pure hunting rig I am having trouble justifying the cost of the higher end models that are nearly double the price, especially when they have the same glass as the NSX. From what the night force reps told me the big difference is more features on the higher end scopes.

Where do you find your information on the type of glass in scopes?

I talked with tech support at Nightforce. I ended up getting two ATACR 4-16x50 SFP.

Nightforce dealer told me that the SHV has the same glass as the NSX line. But the internals of the SHV offer no compasison. I chose the NSX line Drop

I heard from an other reviewer that a difference between the SHV and NXS line is that the SHV does not go through the rigorous quality testing that the higher end lines do. Thus, you would want to do all of the testing to ensure the scope is properly calibrated, i.e. tall ladder test and box test. I would also break in the turrets (dial up and down 5-10x just under maximum rotations) before testing and zeroing as well.
