Have a pair of GPO 8x40 rangeguides bought from Doug. Have put them through the gauntlet the past year. From West Texas dust storms to sub zero Montana hunts. The optical clarity was on par/better than my Maven binos and rangefinding ability better than the Swaro EL’s. IMO, it’s a good mix of the two. Buy with confidence.
Which mavens?

b3 8x30

I like an 8x power of bino’s for the stability and my 4 year old kept rat-holing my pocket rangefinders but for whatever reason would never touch the binos in my chest harness. Figured it would be best to combine the range with the bino so he would leave my sh!t alone. lol.

Thanks for that. I did drop the hammer on the 10x40's.

I'd say just shy of a Meostar, similar to a Geovid - R
Doug, what is the optical difference between the Geovids? I can't find a straight answer to that anywhere. I'd be willing to pay the differences if the HB-R's or the 3200 or 2700's are optically better than the R's. Can you offer any information here? Do the more expensive Geovids just look cooler or are they just more ergonomic? What is the real resolution and coloration difference in this line? And how does the GPO relate to these differences?

And how do guys mount the GPO's to tripods?
