Yeah I agree but just find it a little strange that he seems to get the "bad ones" so to speak. Perhaps it is very much to do with the methodolgy used when setting parameters

. I have read a few threads on another site where this particular gentleman answered some critics on that very matter. Problem I have is that if the scope is an unknown entity these type of results can produce some very fixed ideas about the scope for ever more. I certainly have not heard any FLT owners bagging their scopes although a few have sold them to buy TV and Taks
