    SPECS is for SPECULATIONS: Eye relief and Field of View in the Razor HD 11-33x50

    Specs is for ... Hello oldfortyfive, thank you for your answer. Meanwhile I've got used to the less-than-ideal eye relief of my Nikon ED50; which means, I'll keep it. However, I've found a simple (and I think quite correct) method for measuring eye relief. The eyepiece in question has 15.5 mm...

    Can anyone tell me about his experience with eye relief and field of view of the Vortex Razor HD 11-33x50? I know the specifications, but I'm not at all sure they can be trusted. The background of my question: I've just ordered (and got) a Nikon Fieldscope ED50 with the 27x DS Wide Angle...

    At war Mr. Brock, Sir, we are sorry that we have to contradict you again, but the Thirty Years' War lasted from 1618 to 1648. There is no reason to assume any dates other than these. (The Wikipedia-site your link leads to does not contradict this at all.) Not that it would matter: those who...
