sholling,

I checked out this PDF:
http://www.nikkostirling.com/Content..._Catalogue.pdf

From what I have read there, it appears they have several versions of the 'Nighteater' line. The Platinum Nighteater model comes in 6-24x56 (from what's shown) and I don't see a 4-16x44 or a 6-24x44. Are you referring to the "1 Inch Hunting" or the "Eurohunter"? Any reason why you prefer a 44mm objective lense? Just curious because I'm a beginner when it comes to scopes.

I'm kind of a fan of the Butler Creek flip-up lense covers.

Do you think that the sunshade on the front of the scopes cause problems with the diagonal sunshades?
