Rifle Scopes Spottng scope question

[avmech]

I am in the process of changing out gear. To now, I have had spotters with the straight eyepiece. Would it be advantageous to get one with an angled eyepiece? I am thinking that the angled one would serve more purposes. Thanks!!

Angled is best suited for prone position. You can set the scope up in a position that you can look right into without having to move too much from firing position.. Also if you use a high tripod for viewing... it's easier to look through... you don't have to crouch down like with a straight one...

Only real advantage to straight is faster spotting on targets or things moving, like wildlife.
