Eye cups on Scopes , Any good?

[airgunmike56]

I got a question about the eye cups on scopes, Is it a faster to focus when you can just stick your eye in the cup? Pros and Cons of a cup.

I use mine to keep the ocular lens from fogging up and getting wet. It also helps with repeating your eye placement.

Eyecups = Benchrest shooting

I got rid of mine. More trouble than they are worth to my varied shooting.

They seem to be very popular in field target. I suppose if your shooting benched you don't need it. When your outdoors in the elements it's a key piece of kit. There are many models and shapes to try from.
