[QUOTE="bhp3rd, post: 714921, member: 16510"][b]What Bill says is correct and good helpful information.[/b] What Bill says is correct and good helpful information. I would never use anything like this for general looking for errors or varieties. It's overkill to say the least. I use 10x & 20x Baush/Loumb Hastings Triplet only. If it can't be seen by that then the chances of it being anything valuble are 0%. These higher power do have uses such as for photos and extreme attributuion, overlays and such but I have never needed one at all. The strength of or sight of an error or variety should be closer to 5x to be very valuble but I just got hooked on 10x. A scope like this should only be used as a backup for an already found variety or to find die markers for same. Still even after 15 years of searching I have never felt the need to have one but you may find it useful and if so then fine.[/QUOTE]
