Revic BLR10b Rangefinding Binoculars

[Marty]

Any idea on when the details might be public?

Episode 194 "The Reserve Hunting Recap + Q and A on Hunt Prep" of the Long Range Pursuit from Gunwerks discussed the Gen II BLR-10Bs. To shape your expectations, the podcast did not go into great depth offering hard release dates or specs.

I also reviewed the Leica Geovid Pro now and upgraded the software to AB Elite for $149.

Considering the price difference between Leica Pro and Leica AB+ versions (appr $600 here in Norway), this makes the Leica Geovid AB+ look like an unusually poor offer. If I understand correctly, the difference is a preinstalled software upgrade and a (in my opinion useless for field shooting) WEZ number???

I haven't tested the Revics yet, but they seem more gearedbtowards actual shooting and killing. The Leica feels slo-oo-ow and I can't really control the data or speed of the display.

Looks like mid-late August for the Gen 2 now. Thinking (hoping) it will be worth the wait, maybe I should have held on to my Gen 1 until I got the Gen 2

Any update on specs on the gen 2s?

From what I have heard:
- slightly better glass
- faster ranging
- color other than black
- more info in retical
- better app integration

BUT I have not put hands on them, this is all word of mouth.

For the last month, I have been comparing my favorite EL Range TAs to the Gen 1 and Gen 2 Revics. Just waiting for Revic to give the word to proceed.

and what are your thoughts? Going away from the swaros, or sticking with them?
