Not sure if you’re replying to my comment, but I was referring to the image at max elevation, not max magnification. Up to around 20 mils, at all powers, the image is very nice.
Yup I'm an idiot, guess I never read that correctly, my mistake.
Same here, lol. I was going to be very disappointed to buy a 3-18 and find out the image sucked at 18X. I am glad to hear that I misread. I don't think I have ever had my scope anywhere near max elevation, but I have never shot past 1200 yards.
