Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Leupold BX-2 Cascades 8x42 Binocular???

Anybody have experience with these binos? I was comparing them to the Bushnell Legend HD's, and I think I like the Leupolds a little better. Hard to tell when looking through them in the store though. How do the Cascades perform in low light and at night? Am I correct in looking toward 8x rather than the 10x version? Would be bringing these with me to TX next month and they would be used to help spot pigs around the feeders at night. Looking for binos that retail around $300. Would love to get some Meopta's, Swarovskis, etc, but don't have the funds at this time. Thanks for your input!

These are as good as your going to do for $300. Zen ED2 8x43

I have a pair of cascade Leupolds. They're very light and I like them at dawn and dusk. Have no complaints with them. I got them new on Ebay for 150.00. I also have a paar of B&L Elite 8x42. They're heavier but are better glass.
