HD means "high definition" the others without "HD" do not. ;)

Maybe itss thee Irisssh in mee.

Chromaaticc Abbberration.  Roles off thee tongue.


In this discussion nothing can be said of Lenses Regardless of manufacturer that leave nothing to chance and are designed properly.

There is nothing finer than viewing things through a proper lense that controls the CA, and has good contrast and allows for resolving things at great distances so much you get a little giddy.

Conversely nothing worse can be said of a Scope Assembler or Desiger than to make claims that are erroneus or false.

To me HD is one of those terms, a kind of ambiguity that is misleading and is inherently flawed.

ED or low dispersion glass is a clear definition that leaves nothing to wonder.

I would like to see ED glass used in the next build without any over inflated price.  It is BS that we cannot have a higher quality scope that uses ED lenses come out of the awesome and timely efforts and blow all the competition away without the over inflated prices.  Profit is not a dirty word but imagine the hoopla.

No one

This is exactly the kind of thread that endeared me to this site... and keeps me coming back.  Thanks guys!  Now, I'm going to go play with my tool....er, I mean my optics. Big Grin   two rifle/scopes combos that need sighted-in.  Sure wish I would have bought more ammo before all the dumbasses bought up all the stock!
take em!
