Wondering if I can get some opinions. I have a line on a NF SHV 4-14 ffp brand new for 1k. I'm liking the price, but it is an older model. Does anyone have insight on comparable new glass at the same price +/- 200 bucks? Thanks guys
The mk4hd is a much better optic for the money. Better glass better fov better reticles. The shv is a decent scope but they should cost 6-700....not 1k+.

SHV were fine 15 years ago (I owned a couple), but times have changed. Vortex PST Gen II 3-15 and Viper HD 3-15 are better, for well under $1000 new shipped, especially with the coupon codes. Even the 5-25 is around $1000, and the Razor LHT isn't much more.

The new Vortex Viper HD scopes are way better than the SHV for $999... I would buy another one of these before buying a PST-II. The new Viper HD has more features, like a locking elevation turret (like the Razor scopes), and a capped windage. The glass is really nice for the price, too. I've had mine since they came out, and it's impressed me.
