[QUOTE="khmplus, post: 2676573, member: 121867"] Image brightness is proportional to the square of the scope objective diameter. With the same quality of optics and coatings, a 56mm objective will transmit 25% more light than a 50mm objective and almost twice that of a 40mm objective. For quality optics, I’m happy with the ones I own from Leica, Zeiss, and Steiner. I’m sure that Swarovski, S&B, Nightforce, Hensoldt and a few others are great too. [/QUOTE]
