[QUOTE="diriel, post: 630211, member: 26983"] One thing to keep in mind about Exit Pupil is that as you age your eye's ability to USE exit pupil diminishes. A 21 - 28 Y.O. eye could possibly use as much as about 5.5-6.0 E.P. but an eye pushing mid 40's will be lucky to push much past 4.5 E.P. etc. Another thing to consider is the quality of the optics and their coatings. My IOR 3-18x42 within the last 10 minutes of light or so will allow me to dial in 12-14x and engage a 1 litre bottle filled with red dye at 1000 yards. Try that with a lesser optic, even at 18-20 or so in the last 10 minutes of light even if you have a 56mm objective... Gary [/QUOTE]
