[QUOTE="matt_3479, post: 2065156, member: 23070"] For comparison on prices. In Canada the razor and amg come in around 3000-3500 dollar price range. Nxs is 2800 and change. The Schmidt’s come in around 4300-4800, the Steiner mx7i comes in at 4700-5000 and the Nikon black come in at 850-1100, vortex hs is 750 range and the bushnell tactical is in the 1200-1500 dollar range. The element helix comes in at 500-550, the titan comes in at 1000-1100 and the nexus comes in at 2000. I will be receiving the titan as well hopefully next week. Started with the nexus today. I did a box test, vertical line test, and the aggressively mashed the turrets all over the place for 2 mins, returned them to zero and it was bang on for all tests. Tracking was perfect! Optically/function/feel, I had it side by side with a pm ii 3-20, razor gen 2 4.5-27, and nxs 5.5-22 today. I had a target at 50 and 100, a shed at 475, a tree line from 800-1000 and a cell phone tower at 1500. So far I’m extremely pleased with it. -As far as turret sound/click goes it in order from best to worst; razor, element, pmII and nxs - feel ; razor, pmII, element and nxs are close - ease of zeroing turret; element, then pmII, vortex and nxs are tied - zero stop feels rock solid on all 4. - setting zero stop pmII and razor, then element last nxs Optically the it’s very impressive glass for its price range.
