6X Binoculars

[Whip]

I had a pair of Vortex Viper HD 6x32s that I really liked, unfortunately I lost the focus knob somehow. I sent them in for repair but since Vortex no longer makes that model they didn't have the part and ended up sending me a brand new pair of Viper HD 8x42. (Great warranty & customer service by the way!) While they seem like a nice set of binos I really liked my old 6X. I've already got a pair of Swaro 8.5x42 for my more serious stuff.

Thinking about selling the Viper 8x42 and getting what I really want. I like the Maven 6x30 but they are currently out of stock. What else should I be looking at?

I have the Maven 6x30 and did a first impressions review on them. You can get them when they are out of stock by ordering custom (that’s what I did). You don’t have to change much and it doesn’t cost much more. I think you can keep them exactly the same and just get your name engraved on them for an extra $20. I got mine way faster than expected. I also really like that they are made in the USA with Japanese glass. If that’s important to you. It is to me. I have not had these hunting yet, just looking at stuff in the desert from my back yard & stuff.

Edit: I just looked at the website. Engraving is $30 and it looks like even the customs aren’t available until late July.

Maven B.3 6x30 first impressions

My new custom binocular showed up in the mail today. I can’t speak to how bright they are in low light yet as it’s very sunny right now. Comparing them to my Zeiss Conquest 8x40 ABK set they appear about the same in this light (no surprise, both have 5mm exit pupils), if anything they are a...
