I went with the Sig Sauer KILO10K 10x42 combo rangefinder/bino. I also have a pair of Swarovski 10x42 (bino only) and like the clarity and feel of the Sigs better. I've had several friends with Swarovskis compare side by side and they agree.
Sig must have updated there glass because the one's I had I sent back because the glass seem dark to me. Good to know.I went with the Sig Sauer KILO10K 10x42 combo rangefinder/bino.

I have owned both Swaro and Revic. As a hunter, the Revic is by far the better range finding bino. The Revic ballistic engine, when paired to my rifles' ballistic profiles have been accurate at all ranges to 1/2 MOA.Ok so i have the revic rangefinder and a pair of 10x42 SLC about 3yrs old. I like the idea of having everything in one.
I was thinking about the revic Acura BLR10b but i hear the glass sucks but laser is the best. Does anyone know how bad the glass really is? Is it comparable to the Swaro SLC?
The other one i was looking at is the swaro EL TA range i hear the laser is weak but the glass is top notch. I dont sit behind my binos for hrs on end glassing normally do that with my spotter . Or i can say screw it keep my rangefinder and get NL pures .lol so many options anyways thanks fir the help in advance
Yes they did, the new Gen 2s got a glass upgrade and some other new features.Sig must have updated there glass because the one's I had I sent back because the glass seem dark to me. Good to know.
"Too Powerful" is not how LRF logic works when figuring out range. It is more likely just averaging out multiple returns and then giving you the average.The best glass out of all of them are the Zeiss. Swaro's use Zeiss glass, as do others. That's why they're comparable. My Zeiss RF's will consistently range soft targets to 2500 yards. The only issue I have with them is very short yardage (under 80 yards) for archery, etc. 20 reads 22, then 40 reads 39. My theory is the laser engine is to strong for the processor to process the close range, but for that much money, a bow mode would be nice! Other than that, they have all the bells and whistles- bluetooth, but in weather station, etc.
If Swarvo Pures are Zeiss glass then Zeiss screwed up and gave Swarvo the best glass or coatings they have. I can't see that at all.The best glass out of all of them are the Zeiss.

This was going to be my suggestion, as I will be getting these in the future.The NL pures will be hard to beat for quality when glassing. Glass in range finding binos will probably always suffer a little. If you really want a range finding bino, you might wait a little bit until the new vectronix starts to become available. How long? I'm not sure. I have a friend that put money down on them expecting to have them last month and he was just told that only 25% of them got shipped from the factory and he probably won't see his until December
