[QUOTE="tulku, post: 677811, member: 5203"] BSS , here's a Tip for comparing Scopes especially as you go in to the higher end stuff , but applies to all levels . Googol Resolution Charts or Targets . These are many times based on the 1951 AirForce Resolution Target . The copies off your Printer won't be as good as those you can buy ( and these can cost big bucks and are obtainable for the Photo-lithography Industry ) , but the Printer Copies are plenty good for Testing the Resolution of your Scopes . In many Cases , you will see a series of different sized Lines and Spaces with associated Numbers , and you will have to play with distances to the Charts and your Scope Power , etc . You can also go to a Kinkos and Scale these Charts up or Down in Size . Anyway , you can put actual Numbers to the Resolution / Sharpness or whatever else you want to call it . You can also Test in whatever conditions you hunt in ....... bright light , dim , rain , etc. [/QUOTE]
