    For folks with experience with this optic does the eye box get finicky at higher magnifications?

    I didn't find the eye box as forgiving as some other optics, while casually looking through one recently. But I'm 6'6" 320 and my gun fit is quite a bit different than others so I assume that had a lot to do with it.

    I'm really curious if this condition is common on the ATACR 7-35, and especially once entering the 25-30x range.

    Thanks for any thoughts you may have.
     
    I should clarify what I meant, does this scope have a tighter eye box at those magnifications when compared to others (Kahles 5-25 and ZCO 527 are what I can compare).

    Thanks
     
    In practical use, under recoil you'll tend to lose the target from the FOV before your eye moves out o the eye box with the NF. It's smaller than say a Schmidt or ZCO, but not by much, and certainly not enough to hold anyone back.
