    But even the 12x42’s are probably gonna be a little much without a tripod thought correct?

    Was just looking at the Swarovski website and comparing everything. I know is anecdotal as seeing they in person is the only true test, but at least on paper the specs for the 12x42 NL’s kind a look like a sweet spot? Good eye relief. Good FOV. 14x52’s look to be quite a but tighter. Be...

    Is this something that happens often? I'm a member at Phoenix Rod and Gun. Trying to get over the flu, but was planning on maybe running down there Friday to do a little load development. Okay so far what I've gathered is, NL Pures are amazing. Seems like what you're saying is the NL Pure 14X...

    Several people have mentioned it, and appreciate all the intel on checking out the classifieds on the various websites. I will for sure look into that option once I narrow in what exactly I'm looking for. I've already perused them a little, but high quality stuff like Swarovski and Nightforce...

    Got it. Thanks for the clarification. I understand the convince aspect of having all in one, but like I said I already have a really nice rangefinder I'm happy with as well as a Kestrel 5700 Elite with AB. I still don't think feel like anyone has found a way to mash all that together into one...

    I wouldn't say money is no object. 1-it's not true, and b of all it just sounds douchey. Even if it was true I'd never say it. Which it isn't. :) I think we (myself included) do a lot of "this brand or that brand is just as good". But it's not. The laws of economics and physics will prevent...

    You mean common for PRS matches right? Which would imply the 12X to 15X is plenty to call shots at distance?

    So maybe 2 pairs of bino's is the better compromise? "Figure out what you want to carry on your chest for a rangefinder and 10x". So it's your opinion you should really be carrying some type of 10X binoculars regardless of what else you're going to carry? I figured the larger bino's would be...

    Sorry, little confused by what you're telling me. So you went with the Revic binoculars because the other's were cost prohibitive? You wanted 2 pair of binoculars, but for now just bought the Revic's? Or you bought the Revic's now and plan on purchasing the NL Pures down the road? You mention...

    Great info! Thank you. Gonna try and take it one piece at a time and ask some follow up. I can start by saying there will be no more Vortex in my life. At least not in this arena. I appreciate it for what it is still and still own many vortex products, but for rifle scopes, binoculars, and...

    Been in the process of upgrading glass for awhile now on my rifles, and starting to look at my other optics. Committed to buying only quality optics going forward. I have a Vortex Viper 65MM 15-40 angled spotter and a pair of Nikon Monarch 10X42's that I purchased in 2012 for my first elk...
