Mule Deer, yes there is a wide adjustment range of the 36mm tube across the Victory line but based on your own interpretation, there is no benefit to that inside a 1-8 close range scope and I'm sure that Zeiss would choose a much smaller tube size for this scope specifically if there was no benefit to 36mm tube over one-inch tube other than the elevation adjustment benefits.

Additionally, again with all due respect, you were the one trying to convince me and others that it is not easier to "get behind" larger tube in comparable size scopes so I would suggest to stop adding wood to this campfire because your own credibility is being diminished.
