    Rifle Scopes MAP Pricing Structure

    Re: MAP Pricing Structure So how exactly is choosing wether or not to buy a product at a given price directly from a manufacturer different for the customer from choosing wether or not to buy a product at a given price from one of several dealers? Where's the socialism happening in between there?

    Rifle Scopes MAP Pricing Structure

    Re: MAP Pricing Structure Now here's a little paradox for all the vicious MAP opponents: The best possible price for the customer would be, without a doubt, achieved by buying directly from the manufacturer without going through a dealer at all, taking the dealer margin out of the equation...

    Rifle Scopes 50mm vs 56 mm Help.

    Re: 50mm vs 56 mm Help. What a bigger objective buys you is being able to dial up the magnification a little further before the image starts getting darker. Once the exit pupil of the scope (which at the relevant magnifications is objective size divided by magnification, so it decreases...

    Rifle Scopes in low light conditions....?

    Re: in low light conditions....? When you have two variable scopes with different size objective lenses, the bigger objective will allow you to use a bit more magnification in low light, that's all. Assuming your eye pupil opens to 6mm when adapted to low light conditions, a 56mm objective...

    Rifle Scopes Premier Heritage 1.1-8x24 are on the way!

    Re: Premier Heritage 1.1-8x24 are on the way! While those through the scope pics are great (as I have come to expect from SWFA), it is really easy taking a bad image through scopes in general and this one in particular doesn't seem to be too camera friendly, I've done much worse than SWFA in...

    Rifle Scopes March FFP 3x-24x Tactical Scope

    Re: March FFP 3x-24x Tactical Scope What's killing the finer lines in the reticle isn't the big magnification range, it's objective focal length, so in order to get finer lines, you'd have to sacrifice compactness (and loose elevation/windage adjustment range at the same time, or move to a...
