OK - What do you guys recommend for optics. Not brand, per se - but rather 8x42, 10x42 or whatever... The reason I ask is that I have been invited to join the Pro Staff at Vortex Optics. I can get binos at a pretty good price. I'm thinking it over now... www.vortexoptics.com
I recommend 8 or 10x42's. I got 12x42's and can really tell when I have had too much coffee in the morning, my shakes will cover 100 yds it seems at times. Lower powers for bino's and higher powers for tripod mounting. Get good quality so you don't go cross-eyed or get headaches on those long stretches behind them.
