[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 156165, member: 319"] Looks great Big Al! Thanks for posting the pics. Bravo, They have much larger erector tubes/assemblies. Larger lenses inside for better optical performance and I believe some of the hardware required to make the 6X zoom range just physically takes up more room. It's all a compromise--you could stick 1" internals in it and have gobs of adjustment, but you may be limited to a more normal 3-9X or so power range and you'd be at an optical disadvantage. There are plenty of scopes like that on the market already. [/QUOTE]
