most really good scopes prevent with this with good baffling and painting the edges of glass etc.... it happens in binoculars as well

even a zeiss conquest level scope should handle that pretty easily..

i dont see it in my swarovski but ill be honest i havent seen it from any scope in awhile, any scopes with 300-400 price tag and up at least


Im sure the new hi tech Leupold reticles made with "Electra-Form"tm Technology,
has taken care of the problem......... wink
