[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 308026, member: 5418"] Thanks for clearing that up John. I certainly agree that resolution and brightness improve with the larger objectives up to a point. I'm considering the 3.5-10X40 (for a 375 H&H). For my purposes in the intended case the 40mm is fine - I can mount it lower which I prefer, as this is a rifle with a slimmer stock. I still need to be able to get out to 350 yrds if necessary. Also over here there's far less of an issue with low light and brightness. Where it's darker in closer bushveld I'd be at lower power anyway, getting the full advantage of the larger exit pupil which is over 10mm anyway. For lighter rifles your scope certainly sounds like the business and I'd think in that case it's probably no contest compared to the heavy scopes (of which I have several). I like the feature of the turret cap for the reasons explained and it's good to have it IMHO. WL [/QUOTE]
