[QUOTE="5RWill, post: 1816857, member: 98561"] No problem i'm glad i could help, i wish i had an NX8 to give a more valid comparison. I will say for the write up Bill did on the 2.5-20 the positives were very good. Some of which i wasn't expecting given it's size and price. He noted severe distortion around the image but where the resolution held there was no notable CA and the IQ was very good. Now i've seen some say the 4-32 alleviates some of the issues that plague the 2.5-20 but i just can't see them all of a sudden remedied by a slightly larger design. I hope he or ILya get's one to do a comparison because if so i'm thinking about it for the 300PRC/30 Sherman build. Though Leupold is also coming out with a new reticle for the MK5 and while there are drawbacks of that optic the extra elevation might come in handy for what i'm wanting to do, and honestly i loved my MK5, Leupold just needs better reticles.
