    What am I giving up with a compact scope?

    What are the disadvantages, if any, in a compact scope versus a full size scope? I understand the shorter tube may present more difficulties in mounting, but what else? Does clarity suffer? Is eye relief shorter or more finicky? Less light gathering? What else?

    New to the lifestyle

    Hello, ladies and gentlemen. I wanted to introduce myself, as I am new to PCP airguns. I bought a Marauder Field and Target and giggled like a child the first five shots I made, because of the unexpected silence of the rifle! It's been fun embarking on this new hobby (I hope the word "hobby"...
