After scouring the wealth of information here I’m coming up short on exactly what I’m looking for. I’m debating between the Kowa 553 and the Swaro ATS 20-60x65 for use as a resident in the Yukon. Everyone seems to consider the Swaro as the gold standard but the Kowa weight is very appealing. What I’m trying to determine is if the extra 15x zoom is worth doubling the weight? What ranges are most guys glassing from, when using binos to spot game and using the spotter to verify legality? Is it just a matter of getting 200yds closer to judge a ram or 2 miles??
