[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 16188, member: 34"] Butch The shorter focal length and the normal lower power of the handhelds is the differance. The lower the power, you can be off a tad without noticing mis-alighnment concerning the handhelds. They have to be WAY out before it bothers your eyes very much. Not so as the power goes up and the focal length extends. I to have tried it both ways and use the H&V planes whenever I can. The fellow that owns Griess's (I mentioned in the previous post) was on his way to Williamsport to have Keiser do them when he stopped by where we were set up. Had I had to rely on the moon he would never have had his glasses recollimated that day and ruined a full days hunt. He said when I finished with them that, they were MUCH better alighned then when Keiser had put them together. Harry used a Collimator and I heard him speak of using the moon at times also. I guess it's what works the best for the person using the glasses? Did Boyd speak to you yet? Email me and I can give you some info. Later DC [ 06-09-2003: Message edited by: Darryl Cassel ] [/QUOTE]
