Here we go with a binocular question. Those of you who have actually used these two brands which one should i buy Swarovski 15x56 scl or Maven B5 18x56 I willl be using them for spotting shots on steel targets between 600 and 800 yds , spending long periods of time looking through them. Also they will double for spotting game on the plains during hunting season.

I’ve got the Swarovski 15’s, that being said I’d call Doug and buy some meopta 15’s.
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

I haven't had my hands on the MeoStar 15's but I can tell you that the 12's are excellent and even better when you add in the price. I can hold the 12's steady to spot game and evaluate. I am sure that if I was using the 15's I would want a solid rest/tripod to help aid viewing. The Meopta MeoStar B1.1 15x56 binos are scarce and if you come across one, buy it because it won't be around when you do decide.
