There's no doubt that the NXS is a somewhat better scope..............but they are nearly 2x the price of the SHV.

20-30% more would be enough to not buy the SHV, but at double the price for the NXS, I'm not sure that for everyday use, it's really worth the difference but I would like to have the illumination of the NXS.
