[QUOTE="Mark37082, post: 2676633, member: 120066"] Gathering objective information about rifle scopes is difficult. Is there a point where real world observable performance improvement just diminishes to zero? The human eye may be the real limiting factor. I’ve read several reviews/evaluations and opinions on low light capabilities of rifle scopes. Some evaluations are helpful in comparing light gathering capabilities across a fairly wide range of scopes, but unless you can participate in the evaluation it becomes an evaluation of the reviewer’s individual eye capabilities. Glass quality and coatings absolutely improve light gathering capabilities. These features add significant cost to the optic. The real question is where does the improvement stop being observable to your eyes. [/QUOTE]
