That's the thing... I never shoot on dusk so spending the extra $1000 for a wider field of view or illuminated reticle is a royal flush down the loo. I've read all the 'hide comments about both scopes and there is a lot of overstated claims on it. Anyone is welcome to come and have a look through my '42 to help make up your own mind. Maybe your eyes are way better than mine I dunno but I'm 100% happy with it. I just wish spuhr made a lower mount that suited the '42 better which is my only minor gripe.
