Eye Relief of Meostar 8x32 vs. 10x32 ? (1 Viewer)

I like the Meopta Meostar B1s, and carefully looking at the 12X50 or the 15X56, going over application issues. I have the 7 and 8X42 B1s and they have become a favorite glass, which really surprised me. I tried the Euro 8X32 last year at Cabelas (when they were around $450) and thought the eye-cups were too small for my eye -sockets, an ergonomic issue non the less, the optics were a step up compared to the Nikon M7 8X30 IMO, not to mention the build quality.
The eyecups on the 7 and 8X42 are larger diameter and work great, plenty of eye relief with each. If you get a chance to view the 7 or 8X42 B1s take a view, they may surprise you, or not.

Hi Andy, unfortunately there is no chance of trying anything much without buying it, unless I just happened to come across someone using a pair of Meostars, but I bet those are nice. Would also be interested in any further comments about Meostar B1 HD and non-HD, as to any real advantage there might be.
