re: 56mm scope, anyone use one?

I went up to a 34MM tube and stayed with a 50MM OBJ with a Steiner T5xi. Its a light gathering son of a bitch. I can see out to 250 yards on a clear day up to about 5:40pm where I hunt. You step up in price but it is worth every penny IMO. I became a beleiver in spending the money on optics after shooting a friends gun that had a Leupold Mark 6 3-18-50. It was unbelievable but of course that is a $2300 scope. You get what you pay for in most cases with optics. Spend $300 expect a $300 scope. Not bashing people that have them.
