I have used the GPO 8x32 mentioned earlier. I found them to be great and bought mine on another forum for $290 (a new warranty replacement). Very happy with them.

Just an update on this but I did get the B3 8x30 with guidefitter discount so couldn’t pass them up. Should be here next week so I’ll keep y’all posted on my thoughts when they arrive.

I had the idea once to use a lighter set of binos for a woods hunt. Bought a pair of Nikon Monarch 8x30. Used them one time on a eastern big timber whitetail hunt. Went back to my 8.5x42 ELs. Too spoiled or maybe just used to a larger set. I didnt notice the weight difference. I might of had a different experience with a better quality compact than the Nikons.
