I'm looking to buy a third pair of binos for a spare/loaner and don't want to spend over $400. Looks like the market is pretty slim in this price range. I've found quite a few under $300 and over $600 but not a lot in the $400 range.

What I've found so far around $400 are the Bushnell elite E2, Pentax DCF WP II, and Leupold BX-3 Mojave.

Does anybody have experience with these models? Any other models in this price range I should be looking at? I will be at Cabelas and Scheels this summer to compare and hopefully buy, but would like to already have an idea of whats out there.

Looks like Doug has some brands I've never seen in the price range. Anyone know anything about Zen Ray or Promaster or Vortex vipers?

Looking at 10X42s.
