Cabelas Euro HD 10x42 Binoculars for sale. These are the rebadged Meopta MeoStar B1 HD binoculars. They are used but in great shape. There is a little scratch on the left lens but it does not affect performance whatsoever. Optically they are 100%. I am willing to let the buyer return them if they don't like them for any reason but I don't think anybody will be disappointed with them.

I will get pics up asap

My eyes can't discern a difference between the Meopta HD and the Zeiss FL, I end up using the Meopta more as I prefer the ergonomics.

These are truly world class binoculars for a bargain price.

Good luck with the sale.

I own 6 pairs of Swarovski binoculars and this exact pair you're selling. I end up using the Cabela's Euro's most of the time.

They are damn tough to beat and nothing touches them for the money IMO. I have hunters leave camp and they normally end up owning s pair.

Thanks for the bump

just some more info on the binos:

glws, ked


Meopta Meostar B1 10x42 HD BinocularsMeopta MeoStar 42 HD Series Binoculars

Very similar to the standard B1 42mm series, the Meopta B1 42mm HD series comes with the addition of HD Lens Elements, these extra-low dispersion, fluoride objective lens elements will help to eliminate chromatic aberration (color fringing).

As you would expect on a high end pair of optics like these, all lenses are fully multi-coated with Meopta's own MeoBrite 550 coatings - This multi-layer ion-assisted coating is applied to all air-to-glass optical surfaces and are designed to eliminate glare and reflections and they say delivers an excellent 99.8% transmission of light per lens surface.

As well as these anti-reflection coatings, Meopta have added a protective coating to all external lens surfaces which improves their resistance to scratching or abrasions. Meopta call this their MeoShield coating and according to them it meets military specifications for durability and surface hardness. Meopta also state that all the individual lens components are meticulously ground and polished in-house and precisely matched for superior performance.

The Schimdt-Pechan prism design roof prisms have Phase correcting coatings that give a sharp and high-contrast image over the full field of view.

Currently the MeoStar 42 HD Series only contains one model, a 10x42 which Meopta say has a "class-leading" field of view. But whilst their FOV, which is actually 330ft @ 1000 yards is excellent for a 10x42 binocular, it is not really class leading - For example the Minox 10x42 BV BRW Binoculars have a FOV of 342ft @ 1000 yards. For more take a look at this article on Wide Angle Binoculars.

The chassis is made from what they describe as "aircraft grade" aluminium, it is 100% waterproof and nitrogen purged meaning that the internal air has been replaced with dry nitrogen to ensure there is no internal fogging, which can occur when there is a rapid temperature change.

This chassis has then got a protective rubber armor over it which is softer in strategic locations to help reduce hand fatigue and improve grip which is a nice touch and shows a good attention to detail. Sculpted thumb indents are also placed to accommodate a variety of hand positions and encourages a balanced and comfortable hold.
