You can find NF NXS for around $1500-1700 used/like new if that’s the direction you wish to take. You won’t regret it. There are cheaper options as stated above. But none have the track record of the NXS. That is truly the toughest scope you could consider to be in the price range you are willing to spend. Obviously $1000-$1200 won’t get you most NXS but saving and spending the extra if you can afford it will be worth it in the long run
