Why do you say that? The eye relief on the FFP model, (which is NOT the one to get from what I'v read) is 3.25" & the 2nd FP one is 3.5", which is about the same as USO, Premier Ret. & other good scopes. NF has a 3.8+ relief which is about the most. I think 3.5" would be ok on a .50, if you know how to use it. Leupold Mark 4's have aprox. 3.5 - 4.5" but they are not my cup of tea. (Personally I'd rather have the black eye.) </div></div>
I am referring to the FFP model. If you do not believe me, strap one on a 50, and when you get back from the ER, post some pics.
