    LPVO for a PCP - good focus under 30yds? 10yds?

    ...I zeroed the scope in at 4x, since that's what I'm likely to be using most often. That yields a 6mm exit pupil (24mm objective / 4x mag = 6mm EP)*. 6mm exit pupil leaves very little wiggle room in the eyepiece to be off-axis. However while target shooting at 12yds, it is "technically"...

    Bubble in pressure gauge (Vevor DQT-3J)

    I searched, but don't see a thread that mentions this issue, so here goes. I bought a Vevor hand pump through amazon -- it dropshipped from China. I opened the box and unwrapped the pressure gauge. THe gauge is about 60mm in diameter, and inside there is oil (glycerin?) ... which has a 20mm...

    LPVO for a PCP - good focus under 30yds? 10yds?

    I bought the Vixen Viper PST 1-6x. The deal was too good: $300 with mount + throw arm. Just waiting for the picatinny/dovetail adapter and then it's showtime.

    LPVO for a PCP - good focus under 30yds? 10yds?

    .... I've heard only great things about it. but I must wonder An acquaintance has offered their barely-used Vortex Viper PST 1-6x24, for $150 less than an Athlon Helos (after adding in a mount) ... would the Vortex not be a better option, for me, if I'm spending 300 dollars +?

    LPVO for a PCP - good focus under 30yds? 10yds?

    I'm shopping used, because i don't care about cosmetics, only optical performance, accuracy, and durability budget: $200 is comfortable, $300 at a stretch (including mount) magnification: 1-4 at least, and would take 1-6 if I can get it. features: don't care about bells and whistles, just...

    LPVO for a PCP - good focus under 30yds? 10yds?

    I have, yes. They're fixed-magnification, though, and I prefer the ability to zoom.

    LPVO for a PCP - good focus under 30yds? 10yds?

    I have a PCP for pesting (think 30 yds, at most) and want to get more accurate than a red-dot allows. So I am shopping LPVO type scopes. Pretty flexible on things like FFP/SFP (finding 90% of them to be SFP, parallax at 100yds), reticle (doesn't matter much to me) Primary concern is...

    LPVOs mini quest

    a 16mm exit pupil gives only 44 PERCENT of the light that comes from a 24mm exit pupil Yikes! With only 24mm objective, I want every last mm of exit pupil

    LPVOs mini quest

    Exit pupil = objective lens (24) / magnification. So the exit pupil shrinks as magnification increases. ... meaning all 24mm LPVO's have a 24mm exit pupil at 1x ... meaning if the objective is 16mm at "1x"... and the objective lens is 24mm... that means your 1x is actually 1.5x

    To put a cap on this thread: I ended up finding a cz200 (red laminate) in fine condition, and bought it from a seller here on the AGN forum. New hand pump and used scope are on the way. Thank you to all who contributed thoughts, to help me make a big (for me) purchase decision.
