    As far as I know, the field of view is influenced by the distance from the shooter’s eye to the ocular lens (eye relief), the size of the ocular lens, and the scope's magnification.
    A larger objective lens diameter will not change the FOV.
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.
