We get this questions asked a bunch. For dedicated rifle scopes, it's really hard to beat the M845 in Gen 3 for the $2550.00. If you're really budget strapped, get the Gen 2 SHP for $1899.00 and the Torch Pro will is also a great combo for well under $2500.00.
The Gen 2SHP will not have the overall brightness (where the Torch Pro comes in) nor resolution (but closer than any other standard import Gen 2). Gen 2SHP 49-52 Line Pair (LP) vs. 64 typical for the Gen 3.
Overall, the M845 line of scopes are truly the best bang for the buck with a body housing made from machined aluminum, built like a tank in that regard. I love mine, and I have both the 1.8x G2SHP along with the G3, 2.8x. Great FOV as well, a very fast scope for moving targets as well.
The disadvantage to dedicated scopes like this (nothing perfect in the NV world) is you have to point you shootin' stick at everything you want to see in the dark.
