    Binocular recomendations, PLEASE!

    [ QUOTE ] After having such success with the Nikon Monarch ATB roof prism 8X42, I had to try the new Nikon EX Action express 12X50. WOW, these are a great binos. A bit bulky but quite light for the mag. They are porro prism meaning the objective is wider then the eyepieces (roof is a straight...

    Nikon Field Scope

    I have had great luck wit Nikon optics in other areas and no reason to doubt it on the spotter. The guy I get my scopes from has the tactical fieldscope. Don't know how the price compares on spotters, but I couldn't find a better deal on scopes. The sight is www.huntersdiscount.com

    Aimpoint dot scopes

    The Nikon Monarch has a 1, 4, 6 or 10 MOA dot. Really handy to be able to change the dot size. The aimpoint is top notch quality, but Nikon is certainly no slouch. I got mine at huntersdiscount web page

    Any idea on these scopes?

    I have to wonder about the quality of the scope at that price. To a degree you get what you pay for. There are good deals to be had out there, but I would stick to a known brand. I have really been impressed with nikon lately. The nikon monarch seems like a good price for its performance...

    info. needed

    I have to agree with the wisdom given in this set of posts. 8.5 is an awful lot to have bottom end. Along those lines, you have to consider whether you really need 25 over 20 on the top end. I use a 4.5-14x myself and really like the option of the really low end. Of course for the serious longe...

    IOR vs. Leupold vs. Nikon

    Not to sit the fence, but you can't go wrong with nikon or leupold. Both super proven quality. I am a big fan of leupolds customer service and warranty. Saw a 4-14x50 for $610 at huntersdiscount.com

    zeiss conquest vs. leupold

    I looked at both Zeiss and Leupold. Both are outstanding. I found that the difference wasn't worth the price. I found a great deal on a leupold and it made the price difference even more dramatic. I got mine at huntersdiscount.com

    nikon, zeiss, burris, or leupold for my light weight rig

    For the trip of a lifetime, don't take a chance, get a leupold. I don't know about the pricing on a 3 to 10 scope, but I got a great deal on my 4.5x14 at huntersdiscount.com Plus, leupolds warranty is fantastic.
