El Range 12x42 or 10x42

[IowaHunter25]

Im looking at getting a pair of Swarovski El Range TA. Im stuck between 12x42 and 10x42. I hunt the Midwest mainly for whitetail but would also like something to take out west. Any input on which magnification woild be more beneficial?

I'd go 10x42. 10s will be great for the Midwest and nearly all Western hunting. They offer a better field of view and are less weight. I'd even consider an 8 power for your use case.
