[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 895013, member: 35183"] See if you can add a lens shade about 3-6" long to it (non reflective black) and see how that helps. To see bullet holes on white targets is demanding a lot of contrast. Nothing destroys contrast faster than a bunch of glare entering the optical system from the sides or above. The Meopta website does not even list a lens shade as an accessory, but for any narrow angle application it should be a must have. What were you using for a tripod ? High magnification viewing systems need rigid support that can be smoothly adjusted. Once you leave it be, it should be rock solid. No vibration ? [/QUOTE]
