Are NS Panamax really this bad?

Pity you can't lock of eyebell adjustment.....not exactly loose but acan be accidentally moved

That's interesting. I have not seen one in the flesh, looking at photos it looks to me like the eye/reticle focus adjuster works on the same principle as the Vantage's etc, that's to say it screws in and out of the bell and a traditional lock ring is absent. Are you saying that it does work like that but, the friction is not as tight as the Hawkes?

Thanks.

Same as most scopes but feels a little looser compared to the airmax

Just a thought on these eye bell adjusters, if you were to unscrew them as far as possible so they came away from the main body completely, would you lose the vaccuum or rather purged air from within the main tube?

Well, all info seems positive enough for me so on the strength of that I have just placed an order for one.

Thanks again,
