Glassing fatigue.

[Turkeygetpwnd38]

It might not be in the cards but glass quality does help a ton. I can tell a significant difference all day coues glassing between SLCs and ELs and those are both considered top end.

The difference between low end vortex and mid tier Swaro/Leica/Zeiss would be huge.

Not to beat a dead horse but id sell all the glass you listed to buy one alpha set of 10x42s

 

[ianpadron]

Are there any other brands or models that should be considered besides the razors in 10-12x.

Used Meostars in 10x42 or 12x50 are the top of the heap with no equal for sub $1k glass.

I've got a shelf full of flagship Zeiss and Swaro binos and still use my Meoptas frequently.

I can't speak to the alpha glass as I don't own any.
I did experience some headache relief moving from bottom of the barrel steiners to mid grade zeiss conquest 8x42. I think that swap is in the get 80% improvement with 20% investment range though lol.

Not sure how your athlons compare and if they're likely to contribute to your eye strain.

Are the Meopta meostar B1 15x56 better than the vulture 15x56 I currently have?

 

[Rodmor80]

I do believe the athlons are the weakest link in my glasses. I spend a lot of time in them when moving around. I primarily hunt open desert and scrub. So when I'm moving around the big stuff is in the pack

 

[elsb0048]

Are the Meopta meostar B1 15x56 better than the vulture 15x56 I currently have?

I've never had eyes behind either one but very probably: Meoptas are frequently compared to Swarovski SLC for big eyes
