When looking at their optics there are some labeled "LR" or "long range" and it does not appear to be a reticle difference.  I can not figure out what is different about the ones labeled  in that manner and the ones not labeled that way  on identically sized optics. Is it strictly the addition of a side focus?

The 3 biggies are 30mm tube, 125 of MOA and side focus adjustment on the LR.

Else you get a 1" main tube, 120 of MOA and no side focus.

Ok so the size of the tube allowing for greater range adjustment would be the primary difference.



Thanks.

Thanks.


The 30mm tube allows more light to enter the scope as well, which make the picture brighter.
