SCI has perhaps better seminars and was a bit larger. The crowd was older and much more "well heeled" IMHO.

I can't speak to the auctions or evening events as I passed on both. I know this year that SCI has some big name concerts in Nashville.

The goal of both is to raise money for conservation and their foundations. They differ on how they go about it.

As to SCI going to Nashville, that pleases me. I go to Las Vegas grudgingly for the SHOT Show but would rather go most anywhere else. Vegas has become expensive, somewhat dangerous, and not what it used to be.
