44mm objective vs. 50mm objective - 12/23/09
I'm looking at purchasing either a Swarovski 2.5-15 x 44 Z6i or the 2-12 x 50 Z6i. The scope will be mounted on a rifle that I will use primarily for whitetail hunting from stands/blinds on my hunting grounds in south Georgia as well as trips that I make annually to Texas, Kansas, and Canada.
My question is this (and if it's stupid I apologize); Is the light gathering ability
a 50mm objective significantly better over the 44mm objective or is it only negligible?
If it's of any relevance I'm 45 years old and have 20/20 vision with a slight onset of near sightedness. Thanks
