I think it would be hard to make a truly bad choice from the bins he presented, but I'm anxious to hear from another Toric user to see what he thinks of them!
I also go with the 10x42, but I'm a western hunter and typically have a lot of open ground to cover. On the other hand, I usually bring along a Leupold Yosemite 6x30 if I'm spending a day hiking through timber - they're also great for a loaner or backup.
