Very interesting. I always wondered how long it would take for NF to make a more affordable scope. I'm curious to see some reviews.

I saw the SHV at the SHOT show, and it looked like a great feature set for the money.

They told me they were made overseas to their specs, like many of their other scopes.

I think they will sell a pile of them.

Len backus from longrange hunting.com sent me an email and he got some to try out. He said he was going to do some reviews on them. I'm tempted to get one when they come out.

Bitter bulls- did they say at shot that the glass is the same in them as all the nxs. I have the f1 and the glass is very nice.

I couldn't really evaluate the optical performance inside the Sands Expo Center, if that is what you mean.

We will have to see how they turn out in the field, but it did seem like a nicely made scope with a great reticle.

It was wondering where they skimped on the scope at. I was hoping the glass is the same quality as all the other high end nightforces. The turrets look a little less quality and wondering about the internal quality.

I read that they are built overseas to keep the cost down. They say they did not cut any corners on the scope and it's the same as the other more costly scopes.
