Interesting article on scopes

[E30jef]

I bought a scope from Optics Planet and get e-junkmail from them now, but this one actually had a good article in it about scopes.

Interesting that Airgun scopes appear to have the most demanding requirements.

Funny I just read that also. Same e-mail ad. His view point seems to be from a hunters perspective. Made no mention of ffp scopes and doesn't like mil reticles or "tactical" scopes.

I believe its quite an old article which as been repackaged to suit the Optics Planet website - I certainly remember reading as one long page some years ago. You could probably date it from the mention of the 'new' Leupold VX series.

I think the views expressed are generally sound and entirely practical (although largely based on White Tail deer hunting).
