In a test of "tactical scopes", in Sweden. They had a good array of scopes, 4-16x50 Hensholdt, 5-25x56 S&B, 6-24x72 Hensholdt and a few others.

The 6-24x72 could keep on shooting at targets hundred of yards away, after the light was gone, and long after the others could not see a thing. I belive they stopped after 45 min, just becuase it was getting to cold for the other shooters to just lay there.

Objectice size matters.. it pulls in more light


The US in the last 40 years:

Socialism for big corporations and military industrial complex
