Looking for a spotting scope for gun range - 04/12/24
I'm looking to add a spotting scope for use at the gun range at my lease. Typical normal range is up to 450yd. I might also have some need for it for an aoudad hunt, but not much more after that.
I'm not looking to spend a ton of money. But I subscribe to the "buy once, cry once" philosophy and hate to buy something I'll ultimately be disappointed in. So top end cap is probably $1500ish. I'm thinking probably angled instead of straight body, unless someone convinces me differently. It would mainly be used by the spotter, not the shooter. I did see that Eurooptics has a demo Zeiss Gavia at my top end and some others from Leupy and Vortex in the mid-range.
Anyone have some recommendations?
