Vortex Diamondback 8x42 (#428) VS. Nikon Monarch ATB 8 X42 (# 7524) Binoc's
Hi Folks,

I'm trying to decide between the two above listed 8 x 42 Binoculars to be used for Eastern Whitetail and Squirrel hunting.

I was wondering if anyone is familiar with both these models, and if so, which you feel is better optically,etc. and why.

Price, weight, FOV, eye-cups on Nikons, and Eye relief differences I'm already aware of.

I'm also an eyeGlass wearer if that matters much.

Appreciate any input you might have.

Hi Coomer,

Doug is who I plan on dealing with and will be calling him in the A.M..

Was just trying to get some others opinions as well prior to doing so.

Appreciate the info.
