[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1874075, member: 12443"] Hey, i like the lines of that boat, maybe built in NC? Anyway the 20x or 22x wide angle would be a very popular eyepiece among LR hunters. No doubt the most popular. I personally prefer 15x for scanning, especially when mirage is a factor, and its still enough power to see horns at distance. I carry others along of higher power including a zoom if i need the power. I had very large 15x eyepieces made for my 77mm Kowas by adapting them to the bayonet system. As for the hash marks, they arent really very usefull in a spotter. Ive seen guys have a cross hair installed in one so they could fix it on an object so their buddy could look and find it easier in his own glasses. But its actually easier to just walk them in from say a large pine tree or a big rock you both can see. If they matched the reticle in the shooters rifle scope, there could be a more valid argument for them. But ive known guys who mounted a duplicate rifle scope to the bracket on their glasses for that purpose. And after a couple years the scope disappeared. Enough said, no more questions necessary.
