Just curious.
For example, a Nightforce 3.5-15X50 vs 3.5-15X56. Most all the spec's on these two scopes are VERY close to the same except for the objective size.
Would the 56mm model have a NOTICIBLE not theoretical advantage in the field were brightness is concerned?
I'm putting together a "bean field" rifle and late afternoon deer are the target. This will not be a walking around gun so I feel like I could put a big ugly scope on it IF there was a big advantage to doing it. If the difference isn't much I'd just go with the 50mm model.
Thanks,
Terry
