Amateur here but what’s the deal with that range of Swaros that’s so special?

I personally prefer 7x or 8x binoculars for archery hunting and still enough zoom for rifle hunting.
Thanks

I'd look for either the 2010-12 HD or the 2013-20 WB. Both are HD glass. The 2010 has a bit closer focus (if you like to look at bugs and such) and faster focus with harder partial armor with metal bridge. The 2013 has a slower focus and full rubber armor both of which I prefer for hunting. Some folks prefer the 2010 version. View through both is identical.
