I previously owned a 5-25 and recall the eyebox being very forgiving, really enjoyed this optic and shouldn't have sold it.

Can anyone comment on how the 6-36 compares in terms of eyebox forgiveness and any other differences to the 5-25?

I could have had a fluke, but I returned my 6-36. I felt the eye box forgiveness was nowhere as good as my old PMII 5-25, and definitely not as good as my ZP5’s.

The 6-36 had better turrets and a slightly crisper image, but in the end the restricted FOV and tighter eye box took some enjoyment out of shooting for me.
