Don
sadly Nikon do not do an AF equivalent. The 300mm AFS F4 + TC14E is the closest match. Sigma used to do a 400mm F5.6 APO Macro AF which is said to be on a par with the manufacturer's lenses and which is inexpensive. (I will soon find out.)

Enjoy your lens. I see you are already squeezing nice sharpness out of it!
