[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 304970, member: 2011"] The only considerations with a 56mm objective it that the human is not used to those extra 6 mm. It is larger and takes a bit of getting used to. Pretty much like going from a 27" barrel to a 31 incher with a brake. It took awhile to not bang the brake on objects. The other consideration is that higher mounts are most probably necessary which in turn may indicate the need for addition of a cheek piece. Other than those two things I think it would be well worth the little extra to buy the little extra time at both ends of the day. I have a 50 mm ziess on one LR rig but have gone with a 56mm on the next one. [/QUOTE]
