#16 and #43. The ocular side is tricky, it's 2 diameters. At first when you slide the #16 on, it'll feel like the cap's too big because the of the focus dial, but once you slide the BC cap all the way back on the housing, it's perfect.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Parkincense</div><div class="ubbcode-body">OBJ = 2.28"

so the Obj seems to be right between a #40 at 2.25 and a #43 at 2.31...

Is the best bet still to go with the #43?
