[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 468791, member: 25383"] assuming your refering to the Kowa, then it would be KOWA. I used a couple dozen different scopes in a semi controled test to determine what I wanted. The best scope I've looked thru was probably a Swarovsky or a Lieca. It's hard to get mirage out of these two! I bought the standard scope from Kowa with the non flourite coated lenses (for shooting I can't see the need). Besides the better scopes cost 50% more dollars. After asking around, I came to the conclusion that the 27X eyepiece was perfect for my shooting. I get zero mirage looking over a blacktop parking lot at 12 noon on a 90+ degree days (bright and sunny). I can pick out the stud on a pop rivit on a down spout at slightly under 400 yards (around 370 yards to be exact). That's what I was after (resolution). I wear glasses, and the eye reliefe is just fine for my beat up eyeballs. Everybody I talked to said you really didn't need anything stronger than 40X, and the 27X I use has served me very well. Plus it's cheaper! (goto SWFA.com) gary [/QUOTE]
