[QUOTE="Nicholas, post: 13843, member: 281"] It isn't just ruggedness but the scopes have lifetime repeatable clicks/adjustments, they use stainless steel gears whereas most other scope manufacturers use aluminum or other soft metals that will wear much faster. Some even use plastic! It is also true that you can throw the scope at brick wall and it will still function 100 % Combine this the best Clarity and brightness of any optic and you will begin to see why the scopes are so expensive. Wapi I think the NXS scopes are awesome! The only thing I can see that usoptics has over them (besides the fact that you can run a USO over with your car) is the clarity of the glass and a wider field of view. USoptics also has a lot more features you can add on like BDC's, custom reticles, etc... I really like the Ergo focus on the USoptics over the sidefocus type knob on the NXS. The Ergo focus can be used as a rangefinder (when target is in focus look at the dial and it tells you the range). I know the scopes could cost less than they do but I think it is a function of demand. They are at full production now (even with the high prices they have) so if they reduced the prices they would loose money. [ 03-08-2002: Message edited by: sr90 ] [/QUOTE]
