qb 78 need optic

[poil27]

that helps a lot bob so the idea is to stay whitin the guide lines to keep the image quality and prevent the diming of the light is less than optimal light condition some one ned to keep a bit of head room as well i guess

so 4-16x50 is the optic of choice ... now i need to find one whitin my bujet

so 4-16x50 is the optic of choice

Actually, I didn't say that.... On most of my air rifles I use a 3-9 x 40 or even a 3-9 x 32.... sometimes even a 2-7 x 32.... On my Grouse gun, I have a 4 x 32 fixed power.... I find anything over 10X pretty useless unless shooting off a bench.... The MOST important thing, for me, is an Adjustable Objective (AO) that focuses down to 10 yards or preferably less....

Nice Treatise on optics Bob

Eric should probably probably snatch that up and post it up as an article

I prefer fixed powers, larger objectives and AO....but they are hard to find.
