Advantages/disadvantages to Maksutov type spotting scopes
I'm looking at the Celestron Mini mak 25-75 x scope for range use. I want to be able to see .30/.35 cal holes out to 200 yds with minimal trouble. Currently I'm using a Winchester 20-50X X 50mm( Cheapy) which has minimal eye relief (have to remove my glasses to see the 200yd holes at all) and while it's great at 100 yds it's not too good at 200. The Celestron has 22 mm eye relief which should work but I have no idea what the trade offs are with mirror type optics. Any input would be appreciated. I would like to stay under $150 and have no desire to put a lot into a spotter. Thanks for your help.
