What in my statement about ME and MY use is "not the truth"?

You said:

"IDGAF what the paperwork says"

I said that's not the truth.


If you wanted a long eye relief scope and the paperwork said: eye relief 5 - 3.1 but you got eye relief 3.3 -2.3, you'd care. Am I wrong about that?

Still - I don't give a Phouck what the paperwork says on the SWFA scope - I really don't because - and the second part of that sentence is the important part - it works for me. Again - what is not TRUE about what I do or do not care about that you know better than me for me?

I apologize. You are the first person I have encountered that doesn't consider eye relief specs before buying.

ER is but one factor that determines a scope’s suitability for a task I have in mind. Tube length, objective size, eyebox, yadaydayada all have an effect. What works, works, and conversely, what doesn’t doesn’t, regardless of the specs, true or claimed. My 1-4 is a perfect match for my 10/22 CSC. I mounted it so it works at the highest power, and it has enough latitude to work at the others as well. Might not work for me on a long-action bolt action, but then again with a rail it might. At least it held zero on my Mini-14, unlike something else I tried. In general, I’ve had more problems with short tubes and fat eyepieces than ER.


What fresh Hell is this?
