all i know is i have simmons 3-9x40mmon my rifle now and it sucks. i cant hardly see anything at twilight. i was just thinking since the 4x12x50 is only $50 more than the 3x12x42why not, but i see yalls point about the size being a factor.

You could always get the 50 mm and try it out for yourself. I had purchased the 50 mm because it was going on my Sako and the lowest Optiloc rings could accommodate for a 52 mm ( = or -) so I went that route. Knowing what I know now I much prefer the 42 mm. Should have listed to stubblejumper in the first place. I just had to try it and see for myself.:eek: Good luck in your choice...

Your problem is the scope quality and not the lens size.In my opinion lens quality and coatings are much more important than lens diameter.

Just a little grin.:DOver the years I too have learned a great deal by trying things for myself.
