Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Leupold Mojave 8x32

That's certainly the big problem with optics selection these days. The places that have a decent selection are too few and too far between to be of much use in many cases. So we do what you do, research as best we can and do what we think will work for us. Hey, sometimes we are right too. So anyway, I would not sweat the Conquest too much. I'd be pretty surprised if you don't like them a lot.

You can usually return them assuming still in new condition...no need to lose any more than the return shipping if you aren't happy with them.

Thanks, I do believe Cameraland will do that - I'm hoping I don't need to find out. I have yet to hear anything negative (except maybe the eyecups?) about them - so hopefully they will work out.

Hey, relax about the eye cups. I was just pulling your chain a little . The comment in general was centered around my belief that the way a binocular fits your face and eyes are the most important things about a binocular. Usually when there is a gripe it may well be because the eye cups don't extend far enough for a particular user to get the distance from the ocular lens they need. They will likely be just fine for you.

Centershot,

I don't think you will have a problem with them either though every person is different of course. The Mojaves are fast becoming my go to binocular. I believe they are going to replace my Sightron SII 8x32s at this point. I just have a hard time putting them down....even at work.

Thanks - until you guys mentioned it I never even noticed the eye cups on the several Conquest's that I tried. A couple of 10X42's and a 10X32. I just turned them out, put the binos up and went wow. I started seeing detail on mounts across the store that I did not notice with the others. And really liked how they felt along with the smooth workings of the focus knob (unlike the Swarovski CL-awful). The Conquest HD had that immediate feeling of quality.

Well, it's been six months since the last guy posted on these. Have any of you guys had a chance to give these a good honest try? I'm thinking about buying some of these, based solely on the positive reviews I've seen..

I kept the review set I had and I probably use them at least as much as any other binocular I own. I guess when it comes right down to it, I'd be happy enough if the Mojave 8x32 was my only binocular.

Thanks Steve. I've seen your review all over the internet. Good stuff. I'll be trying a pair out this weekend for deer season. I'm hoping they work out well for me.

Great binos, as far as I'm concerned. Here's how I rate them:

Pros:

1. Perfect size for woods hunting
2. Excellent glass.
3. Good ergo's.
4. I love the rubberized armored coating. Extremely quiet when bumped against things.
5. Great light gathering.
6. Good eye relief
7. Comfortable strap.
8. Wide eyepiece didn't bother me like I thought it would.

Cons:

1. Focus ring sounds/feels gritty.
2. Rubber lens caps sticky.
