It really depends on how you anchor and shoot. Now then because your mount is further from your eye, it may not make a big difference. Personally I prefer and recommend the 30MM but that's mostly due to they fact that there are more of them. That being said, I find it hard to get use to the 40MM. ...Just wondering if the FOV for the 30mm model would be minimal or significant?
I know it may be hard to understand and get use to but this is for your advantage, for the same reason your mentioned about the FOV. If you aim with one eye closed, it won't make much difference but with both eyes open, you an really see it. .....For whatever reason, H&R put the mounts halfway down the barrel so it sits about 18" from my eye.
Well, there is a field of view regardless of the power. I have a few rifle and pistol scopes with the power of "1" and there is a field of view and not just because it's stated one the box. ......With no magnification, there is no "field of view" per se.
I doubt you'll perceive any difference from a 1" model.Just wondering if the 30mm would help minimize the left eye always wanting to take over the view . . .
