[QUOTE="scottyd2506, post: 1254386, member: 19778"] Did you compare them at low light when you will be hunting? the 50mm will bring in more light per magnification than the 44mm assuming the coating and glass are equal. Younger people ages up to around 30 have 7mm exit pupils but as we get older, our eye don't open up as much, people in their 50s may have only 4mm to 5mm exit pupils and older only 3mm to 4mm exit pupils. Depending on the person. Chuck Yeager had eagle eye 20/10 vision well past his 70's, but that is an exception. Most Deer hunting is dusk and Dawn hours, most Coyote Hunting is Dawn and Dusk as well.. if your in you 50's 60's and have a max exit pupil of around 4.5mm Then a 44mm is going to give maximum exit pupil up to 9.77 power, a 50mm up 11.11 power As You crank up the power, your Target will get darker. at 15x the 44mm will give you a 2.933 exit pupil. the 50mm will give 3.33. Depend on ho far you are and how dark it is. a 56mm would help more, but this is all assuming the coating are the same on the lenses. a low quality 50mm Simmons is not going to be as bright than a 40mm Swaro for sure.
