    Scope clarity question

    sorry, didn't mean to upset you. doesn't change the fact that mounts don't effect glass.

    scope mounts effect optical clarity.

    Scope clarity question

    yeah, hyper focusing on stuff is a pita. I just don't know many other ways to say mounts don't effect your optical clarity.

    optical quality doesn't change. to be clear.

    Scope clarity question

    thats a really good question. dependent of the manufacture. easy way would be to call said manufacture and ask. you can visually see it using a mirror, you can use a collimator. other than just asking those are the easiest ways. there is a way to do it with a caliper i've read about, but never...

    Scope clarity question

    my point is simple, mounts don't change optical clarity.

    Scope clarity question

    not trying to be, just trying to be clear. removing scope caps doesn't improve your clarity, the glass is the same, just removed an obstruction that wasn't allowing you to use them. it changes nothing, just like a mount does nothing to change optical clarity.

    Scope clarity question

    clarity in case in the future someone ready this thread, i don't want anyone to mistakenly think that changing your mount is going to improve your optical system's clarity. even if you believe real hard, it's the same tube, glass, and coatings. it's not changing anything. it's like thinking...

    Scope clarity question

    true, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. (beer holder)?
  13. JayOpticspecialist

    Scope clarity question

    no, the lenses, coating, and the erector remains the same. the position of the erector tube just changes. if your looking out the window, you can look out the window from any position or angle, but it's still the same window. if the window is dirty, or has a screen, or blinds, sure that effects...

    Limiting mag capacity or the rate at which you allow people to fire will somehow make a range safer.

    Scope clarity question

    fair point. but to say the mounting system is improving clarity is incorrect. it's not going to make the glass any better or improve anything, other than removing something that is hindering performance. its just factually incorrect and could be misleading if misconstrued. sometimes people read...

    Scope clarity question

    I suppose, like cleaning the lenses if they are dirty helps, or removing an ard or sunshade, i guess it's like that, but it's not improving the clarity of the optical system itself.
  17. JayOpticspecialist

    Scope clarity question

    that still doesn't effect the optical system. it won't make it any clearer. in my mind i'm equating it to using an ARD or something else effect the performance of the scope, but it's not the optics.

    Help me pick a scope...

    I've been hunting a vortex LHT myself, that would be my vote. try to put hands on and look through all of them and see what you like best. https://cstactical.com/vortex-razor-lht-4-5-22x50-ffp-xlr-2-moa-rzr-42201/

    Scope clarity question

    I mean it stands to reason if you push you erector tube to the max in any direction, it can have some less desirable outcomes. but I've been dealing in and studying optics since 2008 and this is the first time I've can remember hearing someone mention your mounting system can effect optical...

    post a pic when you do. I have a 375 ruger, i had a schmidt and bender 1.5-8 on it, but i have been thinking about that 2-10x42 or the z8i 1.7-13. i feel like that would be a a great all around dangerous game set up. what and where are you hunting?
