Got my nx8 4-32 today. Quick zero in on my Impact 25. About 50 shots. So far my favorite! My highest end scope to compare to is an Athlon Ates etr. Wanted the Nexus but without real world reviews I decided to spend the extra $650 on the nx8. Will spend some more time with it tomorrow but I really like how light it is. Love the mil-xt reticle. Glass is super clear and bright. Turrets are crisp and audible but easy to turn. No mushiness like the Aztec emerald I use to have. I was shooting slugs at 150 yards today and could easily see the slug in flight hit its target. Going to shoot the dreamline compact 22 with the ares tomorrow and try and get a better comparison.
