25mm Swan EP

I decided to return the 25mm Swan to Anacortes for store credit. I will likely just buy a 22-24mm Panoptic.
It is not that I thought it was such a bad EP, it just was not good enough to use in all my scopes and I prefer one that works for all.
Before you buy any of the new generation Wide Field EPs, I would suggest you get a chance to try it in your scope. I am finding that many of them are very soft in fast scopes.
I have 30mm GSO SV that I just received for evaluation from a sponsor. They wanted an honest opinion on these EPs, so I agreed to try it and rate it for them. No charge to me of course so I don't mind. I will let you know how it works and try to compare it to the Swan if that is possible.

Floyd,

Sounds like the 26mm Nagler T5 is the answer those scopes of yours deserve. 8)
