[QUOTE="86alaskan, post: 1852852, member: 75933"] I use a 42 on my 300wm carbon build. It really is very light and compact. Pass on the illumination, it's not all that great unless it's pretty dark. As for eyebox, I haven't got any issues with mine, but I feel like competition has tuned my rifle mounting to the point of exceptional consistency. When you mount the scope correctly, and practice getting on the rifle correctly, a slightly tight eyebox shouldn't be too big of an issue. The reticle is the FML1, and is well designed to be perfectly useable at 2.5x, as well as 25x. You lose a bit of subtensio detail at the lower powers, but the thicker stadia draw the natural aiming point to center and allow for fairly precise 2.5x shooting. [/QUOTE]
