Anyone have experience with these. I'm considering buying one for my 24X 1 1/2". What can I expect in power increase?
Thanks,

25% with 1" obj., 35% with 1-1/4" & 1-1/2", according to Unertl catalog.

(I never met a horny-toad I didn't like.)

I have one for my 24X. It shortens eye relief. Dangerous on rifles with much recoil.

That's always the trade-off in optical design--"improving" one variable affects another negatively.

Thanks for the input.A friend has one, and we tried it on a couple of 20X scopes and we could not tell any increase in power. Are they marked in any way?? We couldn't find any .

Short eye relief: Tommy Mason has adapted to continual modifications to his nose by his Unertl. Scar tissue has never gotten thick enough to prevent bleeding.
