I believe the angled ocular is superior for use at a shooting bench, where you can set it up in a way that you don't have to leave your seat after a shot, just lean over to look through the scope.

I prefer a straight scope in the field - it's just easier to find a tiny object at long distance that you originally spotted with your binos when you can point the scope directly at it.
