Think of the exit pupil size. on 6.5X the exit pupil is 8.61mm. That's larger than what a healthy human eye can dilate to.



I’m talking about for target acquisition at close range though.

And yeah that’s good, but one thing I loathe about my 2.3-18x56 Z8i is the 8.1 mm exit pupil at 2.3x. Shouldn’t be near that hard to get behind a 2.3x 56mm scope.
