    Go over to gunhive I think there are some good write-ups about the vortex there, Orkin is the man and will answer any questions you may have.

    The NXS, probably not considering my intended use. But the SHV comes in within $100 of the Vortex so that's making for a very tough competitor for me right now.

    I run a Meopta 1x4 for 3 gun, I can bang 4" plates at 300-400 yards with ease. More info here http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2...actical-scope/

    I bought two of my NF 5.5-22X 56 NSX's used for around $1000. You can always get a nice Leopold for 800 to 1200.

    I just stuck one of these VX-R Patrol scopes on my last Seekins Precision build with a Larue tactical mount and it does well. Under a $1000 to boot.
