New Vortex Talon 10k RF Binos

I haven’t seen this mentioned here yet. Anybody know if this is legit? The idea of an improved Fury 5000 with UHD glass sounds great. One can hope at least

I'd say there's a high probability it will happen. I know I was told there would be a replacement after first of the year that included Geoballistics, improved ergos, a 12x option, and Razor HD glass.

What does the Vortex UHD glass compare to, say against Maven, Swaro?

Is this some sort of catalog, or what?

Honestly not sure. Saw it posted on another forum. That’s why I was asking here if anyone had anymore info. I trust roksliders a bit more.

I can’t speak to UHd vs alpha glass. But I can say the glass is tremendously better than the Fury/Vipers.

I can say this for sure........and I have the Fury AB too.

I have a Meostar HD, Gold Ring HD, SLC, ELSV, and 8x32 UHD. The FOV in the UHD blows them all away, it's sharp to 90% of the field, it's very well made, super sharp optics, everything works very smoothly. It takes a back seat to none of my others. The one for sale here under $1000 is a steal.

Dang auto correct. I fixed my post above to I can say the uhds are tremendously better than the Fury/viper. I talked to someone in MT this year that just went from UHds to ELs. He said he liked the swaros better, but they were close.

For what you can get UHds for used, I am not sure they can be beat.

To my eyes, superior to the SLC‘s. No field flattener like in the Maven B2’s and modern Swaro offerings, so also superior to all those options as well for my eyes (yes, that includes the NL’s). Definitely an Alpha performance grade optic. If Swaro had revamped the SLC’s to these and called them the SLC2.0, everybody would lump them into the “Swaro, Leica, Zeiss” bubble conversation. Top shelf optics, without question.

I wonder what these new binos will be priced at. Im still waiting on Maven to release theirs. Before I make a decision on RF Binos. Ad of now the Leica Geovids are first on my list.

I have SLC 15’s and UHD 10x42’s. I think they’re pretty much equal. I’ve never looked through NL’s but I have used my dad’s older Geovids. I like the UHD’s better.
