Binoculars, the best bang for the buck? #18012676 01/14/23 Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 3,113 League City, TX nimrodtracy OP Campfire Tracker OP nimrodtracy Campfire Tracker Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 3,113 League City, TX Looking for some binoculars with HD glass but I don't want to pay an arm and a leg. I missed some Vortex Razors and Vipers for 75% off. What do you guys like that is not so expensive? Thanks Tracy It is not about what you kill, it is about the hunt....

Run it up, until you blow it up, then back it down a bit.

Personally I’d keep an eye out on tract open box /clearance sale and get their 10x42 that can be had around $500. All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

The Celestron TrailSeeker ED at $380. was the #1 rated mid-range binocular in a recent birder site where they rated 15 different binos up to the $640. Vortex Viper. That Vortex was rated at #4. Birders are pretty particular about their binoculars. My other auto is a .45 The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory
