It is my second favorite and used EP just behind the 10XW. I have 2 T4s, 2 T5s and one T6 and I like the eye placement and "feel" of the T4s the best.....but that's just me, I know other have differing experiences. Any clubs or buddies around whon can provide a live comparison with you before you take the plunge? -------------------- Bill 'flector: Vixen R200SS, Webster 22" f/3.6 (on order) 'fractors: TV-85, NP-127, PST-2X Orion 15x63, Minox 10x52 HG, GO 22x85 HD Sphinx, Telepod, EZ Touch, G-11 (waiting) Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 2" Satisfied 08/08/08 02:25 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 2" Paul G   08/10/08 10:26 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 2" kfred   08/10/08 11:55 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Jeff Morgan   08/09/08 03:30 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 2" Shrader   08/08/08 02:35 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Bob W6PU   08/08/08 03:11 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Starman1   08/10/08 04:43 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Jason B   08/11/08 10:42 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Albie   08/09/08 11:32 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 F.Meiresonne   08/09/08 05:29 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Albie   08/10/08 02:51 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Downward Bound   08/09/08 06:03 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Scott Watson   08/09/08 09:46 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 helpwanted   08/09/08 12:23 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Satisfied   08/11/08 12:08 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Albie   08/11/08 12:10 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Covey32   08/11/08 12:25 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Albie   08/11/08 08:03 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 KWB   08/11/08 09:03 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 coutleef   08/12/08 09:22 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Starman1   08/12/08 12:42 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 coutleef   08/12/08 12:59 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 jcjr   08/13/08 02:31 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 coutleef   08/13/08 09:14 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 jcjr   08/13/08 07:35 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 coutleef   08/14/08 09:42 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Alan K   08/12/08 04:48 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 jcjr   08/12/08 10:52 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Albie   08/10/08 02:55 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 jcjr   08/10/08 03:03 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Albie   08/11/08 11:57 AM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 RAKing   08/09/08 01:18 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Mark Jenkins   08/08/08 02:59 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 amys   08/08/08 03:04 PM Re: 16mm Nagler Type 5 1.25" or 17mm Nagler Type 4 Shawn H   08/08/08 03:09 PM Extra information 22 registered and 11 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
