[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 2218681, member: 70559"] Cred1, thanks for posting the "Line test". I used that before I got the optics chart. You are welcome to come to my home and bring any optic you want to compare with my Bushnell on the optics chart. The problem with the "night blindness" argument is two fold. Most of the comparisons are done in full daylight. Another thing is my son-in-law goes out at night without a flashlight because he can see extremely well in the dark. He lives right next door so he gets to compare the same scopes I do. His observations agree with mine. For some reason I don't understand folks don't like to hear one product is not as good as another. Remember, I purchased the Swarovskis with my own money because I heard how great they are. No one wanted them to be as good as their reputation more than me. After reading some of the posts from a decade ago I discovered one poster says the glass in the 4200 is the same as the 6500. From my comparisons they're NOT! Even the 6500 2 1/2-16X don't have glass as good as the 4 1/2-30X50. This shows the posters are going from reading ad material instead of comparing them for themselves. I would like to hear an honest poster who has two or more Swarovskis of the same model compare them on an optics chart in day and low light and get back to us. From my experience their quality from one to the next is not very good. [/QUOTE]
