Hi, I'm looking for both a Yukon 5x60 & a 4x50 lens
I'm also after the thread section from a couple of scrapped t20s.
Its only the threaded sections on the t20s that I need so if you've got any scrappers please give me a shout.
Thanks

Re the Yukon 5x60
1. They are about as easy to find as rocking horse s**t
2. They are significantly heavier than the 4x50 and the plastic threads that make the focus work are not really up to he job. On the one I had the front part of the head wobbled badly.
In summary - I wouldn't bother.
If you can't see far enough with a 4x50 then you're doing something wrong.
Cheers
Bruce

Thanks for the insights Bruce, you may have saved me some shekels.
I'm only at the stage of assembling parts and I've never looked through any of them so I have no idea what to expect.
What sort of performance can I expect from a 4x50 as a spotter lens when used with one of Terry's t20s and sunnranger?
