[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 910963, member: 35183"] The exit pupil at 24x is very small, as it would be with any other 24x scope with a 50mm objective. That means that you have to have your eye aligned pretty good to see the entire field of view without vignetting. The longer the eye relief, the narrower the field of view. Short eye relief, wider field of view. No free lunch. I got the FFP so that I did not need to be concerned about shooting at exactly full magnification. If there is 1 weakness with the PST scope, it is that Vortex decided not to impliment a full and clear magnification scale. The magnification "ring" is not a ring at all (except the part you grip) but it has "islands" that say 4x, 6x, etc and there are few points in the higher magnification range. So with a SFP reticle, one is really guessing what magnification you are on which is not such a great idea. One should at least have a clear 18x and 12x marks so that one can apply simple math to a sfp reticle subtention. [/QUOTE]
