    Those of you that have a straight body PF80-ED can modify a Burris 30X WA eyepiece to fit, so you can have a Mil or MOA reticle in this fantastic spotter. It takes some machine work, so you'll need access to a lathe, but it's a simple mod, just turn the barrel down to 1.25 over the whole length. I'm working out final dimensions, but the test part is within .1 mil over 3 mils, and I still have a bit more to cut back. Should leave us at about 31X when complete. When I get it calibrated I'll do some photos.
