[QUOTE="lynxpilot, post: 1072811, member: 23349"] I don't claim to be an optics expert, but from what I can gather, there's a point of diminishing returns where the added size of the objective lens introduces more disadvantages than the advantages it provides. I think articles have mentioned that modern lens coatings are far superior than what was offered in the past. My current go-to in long range is 52mm objective and it has been outstanding. The discount scopes I bought in the past that have 56mm objective lenses aren't even close. In all honesty, brand loyalty might be a good thing in a situation like this. [/QUOTE]
