[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1202311, member: 70559"] Maybe I posted this before, but since I'm old I will do it again. During daylight when I compared a Nightforce 5 1/2-22X56 with a Swarovski 5-25X52 on deer antlers in the woods 131 yards away the Nightforce glass was good enough for me to see the fork on 5 1/2X. The Swarovski z5 needed 8 1/4X for me to see the same detail. In a low light test the the Nightforce needed 20X while the Swarovski needed 25X. When I compared the 12-42X56 Nightforce at 521 yards the the Nightforce needed 12 1/4X and the Swarovski needed 16 1/2X. If Nightforce wasn't so heavy I would have one on my rifle. [/QUOTE]
