Trijicon vs NF scopes

[Bearhide]

My buddy is looking for a mid priced scope up to $1500.  I personally don't have knowledge of either of these, but he was looking at the Trijicon accupoint 5-20x50 or the NightForce SHV 5-20x56 both sfp.  What are your thoughts on it?   Or maybe a different scope in that range.

The Nightforce SHV will be a tier above the Trijicon for sure.

Or should he just find a used NSX?   If anyone is selling there's he's interested.

I'd take a used NXS over a new SHV.  I don't think you can ever go wrong with a NF NXS.

What type of hunting does he want to do?  Elk to 400 yards, or deer at 1000, or ?  Twist turrets or use a holdover reticle?  Need a little more info to recommend the right hunting scope.

Deer and elk and I think around 600 to 900 yds.
