[QUOTE="700, post: 19243, member: 674"] Shilen30 What Jon Jackoviak posted is partially true in my openion. The advantages of the 30mm over the 1 inch tubes are stronger build and more dial adjustment. Also more room for add ons like side wheel parallex and reticle illumination. Light will travel through a 1 inch tube as efficently as a 30mm tube, so no advantage there. There may be a false perception among the shooting community that the 30mm tubes are more light efficient but this may be due to the fact that 30mm scopes are usually more expensive than 1 inch scopes, and thus may be built using better glass. This, of course, is not always the case. Rgds 700 [/QUOTE]
