Any LPVO with a large diameter objective?

Bushnell has their 1-8x30 Forge. More of a hunting scope with its German #4 reticle. At a little over 25oz., weight may also be an issue for some people. I've never looked through one, so have no opinion on it. Reviews seem to be few and far between.
March has a 1.5-15X42 SFP with 10 Mil per turn on the dial. I don't know if you would call it an LPVO, but it's 10 inches long and has a side focus, and has ED lenses, of course. The objective is a new design and it's quite an interesting concept.
It is a nice model. I wish more companies (Burris, Bushnell, Vortex) would try to fill in that niche. I like the March but they’re hard to find around here and fairly expensive.
I still want to try their 3-24 one of these days.
Yes, I understand your comments. March scopes have to be ordered from a few vendors and the specific model you want will probably have to be ordered. Deon Optical is a small company and the scopes are all hand-made. It usually takes about 2 months to get the exact scope you specified.
The 1.5-15X42 is based on a new objective design. You can actually feel the weight in the objective lens part, as there is some optical magic in that design. In the video above, ILya explained the challenges of such a design and I think Deon did a great job with that scope.
