Has anyone put the bushnell lrhs vs the Nightforce SHV 4-14x50?

They seem to have similar features (available in mil/mil, capped windage turret, exposed elevation turret). Personally, I start losing the tactical type reticle in low light and wish the 3-12 LRHS was available with illumination.

What type of rig are we talking about? Everyone has their own tollerance for weight they are willing to accept from a scope. For me, on a hunting rig, the LRHS at 25 oz is pushing it. The 30 oz 4-14x50 SHV gets scratched off my list immediately for weight alone. If you can tolerate 30 oz then its definitely worth considering.

Weight is not a primary concern with this rifle

Eye relief could possibly be a negative!

Looks like the 4.5-18 lrhs wins in weight, eye relief, shorter overall length, and longer main tube length (at least if their websites are correct).

However the lrhs has a smaller objective. Has anyone put the two side by side comparing optical quality? Tracking when twisting turrets, return to zero, etc

How about the LRTSi? Identical to LRHS except no donut of death reticle, and a locking, rather than capped windage turret, and has illuminated reticle..

I can tolerate the 30 oz weight of the SHV and was shooting my 7mm with 180s doing 2950-3000 today with no issues on eye relief. Never tried an LRHS but they get great reviews. I like the SHV a lot on my 7mm.

I have two 4.5-18 LRHS, and I have zero complaints. Never had a NF, so no comparison.

What is the illumination like on both? Does one get dimmer or have thinner lines when illuminated?

I'd prefer no illumination do they even make a 3x12x44 non illuminated version in matte black?

I don't think they make the 3-12x44 LRHS in an illuminated version.
