Looking at the Leupold chart, it's difficult to compare to the NF because it appears each Leupold is different. The thick part of the Forceplex is .75 MOA FWIW.

The SHV/Forceplex is not bad. The glass is quite good and really excels as it gets darker. My "issue" with the scope is that the reticle is the limiting factor in very specific low light situations, not the glass. It is only a potential issue at first/last light, overcast, under a canopy, etc. and trying to point through a bunch of branches to a darker hide. Though a specific scenario, it's one I find not all that uncommon. I have scopes with bolder reticles that will work better for me than the SHV. I don't want to make it sound like I think the SHV/Forceplex is bad, it is actually quite good. But it could so easily be better!
