Quality Refractor

Still in the though process at the moment, but have been thinking of upgrading to a larger and better quality refractor.

Ive also had enough of collimation on reflectors and GSO's etc, so easy to use and good quality is what I am after. Some thing I can have for years to come.

Currently using a Megrez 110 that has served me well. I can't go too much bigger due to space, weight and a bad back, so interested in the 130mm range.

That leads me to the Tak 130, the AP 130, Stellarview 130, WO FLT 132 and the Meade 6000 130.

I know I will need a new mount too, but that is easier to figure out, and I should be able to thrash the EQ6 for a while with a 130 and OAG so weight is not too high.

After some serious thought on quality, fit and finish, sharpness etc. Please stick to the subject matter and no slanging off "this is better" type of stuff please.

Thanks,

Gray.
