While this has nothing to do with objective size, one thing that makes a scope "friendly" or not for me has a lot to do with the reticle's subtension. When shooting for precision, especially at long distances, the reticle has to be fine enough to allow for a precise aiming point (such as an F-Class x ring at 600 yards or Pdog at similar distances), but really fine reticles tend to wash out and become blurry after a while with these old eyes. However, heavier reticles, while easier on the eyes, just doesn't allow for those precise aiming points. So finding scopes with the reticle subtensions just right can be difficult and frustrating, at least for me.
