[QUOTE="Rifleman97, post: 2049242, member: 103996"] I’ve used a lot of scopes, and I don’t think you’re going to best Swarovski by much without going night vision/thermal/FLIR If you do, you’ll want to look for the biggest tube you can find, and the biggest objective you can fit. For example, 40mm tube and 50-60mm objective. Here’s a couple examples: [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.valdada.com/4-14x50-40mm-ultra-tactical-sfp-mp-8-dot-illuminated-reticule/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.valdada.com/3-25x56-40mm-ffp-ranger-mil-mil-xtreme-x1-illum/#product-reviews[/URL] Leupold VX5’s with the 35mm tubes also have amazing low light capability, just as someone else mentioned. But you won’t be absolutely blown away by it compared to swarovski’s superior glass in my opinion. Even if their superior glass is in a smaller tube. I also saw a Zeiss a while back with a 60+mm objective, I don’t remember what it was called but that would probably be good too. If none of those options are good enough, it’s probably time to consider night vision. There’s only so much visible light that can go through any number of lenses before it’s too dark to see anything. Even relatively cheap scopes have 95-98% light transmission. Hope you find what you’re looking for. [/QUOTE]
