Finally pulled the trigger on a new Leica CRF 2400. Eurooptic has ‘em on sale for 468 dollars- I couldn’t resist.
Looking forward to having another LRF..it’s been awhile?
Thanks again for the help.
Pretty happy with my 10x50 ELs. I live and hunt in South Central Idaho. Long vistas and ranges, generally speaking. Sometimes wish for a 12X NL or 15X SLC but the 10x50 is a great all-around bino for me.
I’m interested in a new rangefinder. Had a very good experience with the old LRF ? 1200 years ago but I’m not well-versed in the newer technology? I’m undecided whether I want something with the ability to link with a phone app or a Kestrel.
I like the looks of the Leica but have a friend that...
OP, as an aside, I had a CZ in 17 HMR that was just a sweetie? I used to be able to dust clay pigeons with the thing out to 200-250 yards. Pretty impressive for a riimfire?
Scope on mine was an old Vari-X 2? 4.5-14.
Big difference in weight as the current 8X SLC has 56mm objective lenses. Swaro’s figures give the weight as 43 ounces? So you are looking at 20 ounces + lighter for the 40mm objective version of the Zeiss?
Oh, I’m very happy with my 10x50 ELs. I’m no expert by any means but they seem to me to be perfect ‘go to’ option in mountainous country?
That said, I do find myself wishing for a bit more magnification at times which is when I find myself pondering the 15x56?
I don’t even own a spotter at the...
I was at my local Sportsman’s this morning looking at the Swarovski 15x56 bino? Weight was about what I expected but the physical size wasn’t an awful lot bigger than my 10x50 ELs?
Hmmmm...
Then I made the mistake of picking up an ATC spotter and I was in love. Guess I better start saving my...
Late to the party here, but I purchased the SG harness about a month ago. Size medium and it is a snug fit for my EL 10x50s but I love the trim design? Getting easier to get the bino in and out of the harness with time and repetition. Also, the tightening cord works quite well for aiding bino...
I purchased the 10x42 EL way back in 2002 or 2003? It was my first ‘Alpha’ bino and I have always wanted another? I’m glad I went with the 10x50 EL SV field whatever- the- hell- they call it now? I haven’t owned a Leica or Zeiss Victory, though I got to spend some time a few years back with a...
Been thinking about a compact spotter for a while now. Though I love the size of, and the view through, the Swarovski ATC I don’t love the price?
This new Vortex sounds pretty impressive. I may wind up owning something made by Vortex after all?
Does that mean I have to put a cheesy Vortex...
