Interesting. I wish outfitter stores like Cabelas, Bass Pro, and Gander Mountain would set up a lowly lit indoor range to compare scopes before buying. I think if consumers could physically see a difference under simulated field conditions, it would lead to a lot more sales of high end optics.

I remember years ago, some company (can't remember who)designed a special target that had various symbols used to compare focus and definition of different scopes. It would be a great marketing tool to have if you were a premium optics manufacturer.

Thanks for the responses.
