Maven vs nightforce

[E tusk]

It is hard to beat Nightforce in general and the SHV in particular. It has everything you need and nothing you don't. Plus they offer a great moa reticle that is uncluttered and easy to use. At 200 yds. a magnification of 20 X max will give you a crystal clear sight picture that should cover your desired applications for both RF and airguns. They seem to have cut out the frills and lowered the price without degrading the product. Win, win.

I’m looking to put a new scope on my 7prc havak element. I’ve narrowed it down to a couple choices. Either the NF nx8 4-32x50 or the maven RS 1.2 2.5-15x44. Both scopes would be FFP and mil.

Used for general hunting and in my area shots could be 50-100 yards up to 400 yards. Not confident in anything beyond at the moment. I really don’t need the 32x on the NF but have heard it’s a better FOV than the 20x. Of course concerned about reticle size at low power. Both scopes seem to be reliable with good reputations.

Thanks in advance.

I have both the NX8 (both 2.5-20 and 4-32) and RS1.2. Both are good. Maven saves money and weight but has trash illumination. NF has a better reticle.

I have not had an issue with either reticle in low power. Mounting surface in 4-32 is better than 2.5-20.

IMO, for a Havak Element, I’d save the weight and cash with the RS1.2. The illumination is not so bad I can’t live with it.
