[QUOTE="biednick, post: 2820124, member: 123604"] Every design decision in optics is a tradeoff. A short scope will have to give up zoom, magnification, price, eye relief, FOV, or something else in exchange for small size. Optics are still improving and it's possible to make an excellent optic in a small package, but it will always be cheaper and easier to produce an otherwise identical scope in a larger form factor.
