Even good binoculars sometimes find it challenging to perform optimally in extremely cold, snowy conditions. Now cold-weather hunters have the answer with two new �winterized� MINOX Snow Hunter BV binoculars, in two power choices -- 8x42 and 10x42.

�Snow Hunter� is more than a catchy name. These binoculars have special lubricants to perform smoothly and reliably in temperatures ranging from all the way down to -22�F to 140�F. The hardened aluminum body can withstand the most severe weather conditions, making it shockproof in compliance with the rigorous DIN ISO 10109-4 standard.

Add to that the appropriate use of Realtree Hardwoods� Snow camouflage design and there's no doubt about their proven field of operation. And there is a shockproof rubber amoring to protect the optics even in the toughest going, and providing a firm, comfortable grip with its non-slip surface, even if you are wearing gloves.

Innovative MINOX sealing technology on the inside protects them from dust and makes them waterproof to a depth of 9' 10�. A nitrogen gas filling provides permanent protection against corrosion and prevents fogging, even in extreme temperature fluctuations.

All of these new additions are there to protect the high quality performance MINOX is known for. Advanced optical systems assure excellent viewing, with minimum glare and exceptionally high light transmission. They weigh 27.5 oz. and have excellent field of view � 389 feet at 1,000 yards for the 8x42, and 342 feet for the 10x42.

With all of these features and benefits, the MINOX BV Snow Hunters are very affordable, priced at $319 retail for the 8x42 and $329 for the 10x42.
