Thanks Mike. My fiance has promised me a spotting scope for Christmas, it will serve as an in the field spotting scope for pack trips. We pack in with mules where we hunt so it has to be tough. My shooting partner already has a leupold tactical type spotting scope that we use at the range and its phenomenal but I couldn't stomach packing one in on a mule. I get sick knowing my rifle is on one, and wrecks are quite common for us. But the Bushnell should work well for this purpose. I will make sure my fiance knows where to order from. Thanks again.
