This is what sold me on Leupolds to begin with. When shooting from field positions where you may not be able to get a perfect gun mount like you can at the range or when you have to make a quick snap shot it really helps. The fact that Leupolds are often 2" and about 1/4 lb lighter than most of the competion helps too.
I have a couple of 3-9X40 Zeiss. The eye relief is not quite as good, but I can live with it. Just wish they were as light as the Leupolds. I understand that some scopes are at least as clear, maybe moreso, and for less money. But the negatives still outweigh the positives and I keep coming back to Leupold as well.
