I've owned several USO FDNs, the ATACR 7-35, and have spent a bit of time with the Burris XTR Pro and MK5 on buddies' PRS guns.
In my personal opinion, overall USO FDN > Burris XTR Pro >= ATACR 7-35 >>> MK5 for a PRS use case.

People like to dog on the NX8, and I thinks it's mostly Internet echo chamber. The turrets aren't super crisp, but all else seems to be fine, or works like a $2k MSRP optic, especially the 4-32. Don't expect atacr performance at sub ATACR prices, and you'll be plenty happy with it.

Maven RS.4
Burris XTR Pro (eurooptic for $2k)
US Optics B-17 (eurooptic prices are ~$2k) or DeathBeforeDismount is apparently offering a free US Optics 50% cert - brings the FDN 17X down to $1400 or 25X down to $1900
Zeiss S3 if you can stretch a couple hundred bucks
