Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Meopta MEOSTAR B1 15X56 HD - any reviews?

Looking for a new pair of 15x56 and came across the Meopta MEOSTAR B1 15X56 HD. On paper they look great has anybody tried these out?


Meopta has a good rep and at $1250 they are they worth it? I have used SLC 15x56's and they were great but at $2300 bucks they are more than I want to spend right now.

Meopta 15x56's are damn nice and compare favorably with the Swarovski 15x56's

Thanks Huntsonora

I have read several good reviews comparing them highly vs Swarovski so I finally ordered my pair. At $1151 shipped they are half what SLC's would have cost me.

well that didn't take much of a push....

At that price point you'd be crazy not to buy em! You'll love em

I used them on a hunt this fall. Really nice glass and I liked the ergos. I was very impressed. I compared them with the new SLC's and I thought they compared very favorably.

Where are you finding them at $1151 shipped??

Found them online at BINOSTORE.COM they emailed me today informing me I may have to pay European Union tariff since they are being shipped to an non EU country. They offered to cancel the order if I did not want to go ahead.

Since I could not determine the amount I am canceling the order.

shouldn't be any tariff on these that I know of......sounds like they just want out of the deal.....

I haven't used the 15x56, but this line from Meopta I'm has amazing quality at a great price. I found the 10x42 very close to the comparable SLC HD, can't see why the 15x56 wouldn't be similar.
