The NX8 has much better magnification range, the AMG is better in just about every other way.

Won't load for me either!! Boy, what a day! We will extend the sale once we are back up and running again!
We had a network cable cut...in Dallas. Site is back up now and sale has been extended for the rest of the day until 9:00 pm tonight. Thanks for your patronage. And we have never sold NF scopes
There are a few on the Hide who seem to have a gripe with Vortex and will always mention how they go down, but I wonder if it's more a matter of numbers. Vortex is the largest sport optics manufacturer and as such they sell more scopes than the others so is it by shear volume? I had one of the very first AMG scopes and mine had an issue with the glue on the threads of one of the lenses, Vortex sent me overnight shipping label and I had the scope back in a weeks time and never had an issue for the rest of the time I had it. I've heard stories of most every other scope going down but unfortunately no one keeps track of numbers. In general it seems the AMG has been very reliable for Vortex, @Delta Hotel is a member of the Hide and works for Vortex and is usually very good at responding to issues, their VIP Warranty is the best in the business. Nightforce is also a solid company with a great warranty and while they have a reputation of their scopes being "bulletproof" they too have scopes that have gone down.
Yes, the NX8 is the "latest and greatest" and has a wide magnification range; however, having such large magnification means compromises are made to the optical design, especially at its price point. Take a look at my signature below as I have a link to a review of the NX8 that I did because I needed to see for myself just how good this scope is. To be honest the scope impressed me at its price point; however, I do list out a number of the compromises I found during my use. In the end, the compromises were enough of a bother for my style of shooting (dynamic with multiple targets at varied distances) that I ultimately sold it. I also have the aforementioned experience with the Vortex AMG, and while it is only 4x, it is a very well done 4x scope - wide FOV, light weight, forgiving eyebox/DOF/Parallax, great reticle, great locking turrets, really good glass that controls CA extremely well. Due to it's wide FOV it feels more like a 5-25 style scope than it does a 6-24 and has more FOV at 6x than some 5-25's do at 5x.
Scott (Liberty Optics) can get you one of the best deals on the AMG so I'd definitely give him a call before the flash sale is over.

Oh, dude. Tell me what you are looking for and we will get you the Veteran's Day weekend pricing!

Anything magically coming up for Black Friday if not one of those MK5’s is still calling my name.
A couple of things.....all Veteran's Day weekend sale orders will ship next week.....and we will be having another smash sale for Thanksgiving/Black Friday weekend afterall (due to popular demand)!!
Thanks for the great deal, communication, and scope.
Highly recommend anyone interested in new glass looking at what Liberty has to offer. Even if you find some "super internet deal" over the next few weeks, I guarantee you won't find the world class customer service Scott provides.
