Both are similar price etc. I'm just not sure of the tube and what are the benefits. Not concerned with the weight difference.
    Hoping someone with the knowledgr can shed some light.

    Pretty sure with a 30mm tube you get more adjustment, so if shooting long range and dialing the 30mm is better. (happy to be corrected I'm no expert)
