Do you use 10x binos for Big Game Hunting? Sorta. My Nikon 7-15X35 has a 10X in there somewhere. They work like a champ.

I'm curious, what's the reason for the thread? Big 10X group hug?  I s'spect it's because a lot of "experts" claim that 10X is too big. Really? Who are these experts?

Do you use 10x binos for Big Game Hunting?
If so, what brand do you use? Specifically looking for what 10x40 or 10x42 type bino you're using.
I'll start with my 10x42 Swaro EL's.
I'm curious, what's the reason for the thread? Big 10X group hug? Quite perceptive! I like to talk about what I have too! I was going to mention my Switch Power binoculars but you caught us.
All guns should be locked up when not in use!

10x42 SLC HD's, or 10x42 Gold Ring HD's.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Not really sure what your point is there Savage, but thanks for your input. Maybe you could clarify.
Thanks for all of the replies guys! I have a couple products on the design table related to high end optics. Just trying to see what numbers of certain types of glass are out there in your hands. Thanks again!!

If you gave me a 10X42 Sawro EL, I'd sell it and buy something more reliable.
BTW, I've been known to hunt with my 12X50 Leica BN. Wish I could afford a 20X60 Zeiss IS. Now that's big and heavy. E
