    when comparing apples with oranges you will always get a different flavour.
    you say the 32s have wider field of view than the 42s...but they arent the same model.....what do specs of the SAME model say for FOV of the two sizes????

    a old nikko stirling gold crown 3x9x40mm will quite simply shit over other 3x9x40mm scopes for field of view.....not 100% sure how but believe its to do with front lens being closer to exit end of scope body...but it is a fact the fov is more...some 2 fence pailings at 30 yards more..... again thats not apples with apples
    two leupolds is closer test....but again must be same model and vintage. the 3 different M8 4Xs I had were all different spec...so different in many ways...again not apples with apples.
