Doug, that's a bold statement! In that class, you have the Vortex Viper, Minox BL HD, new Leupold BX-4, Zen Ray Prime HD, and a few others. I'e heard fantastic things about each of those - you once recommended the Zen Ray's to me. You've obviously had the experience with all of them - what makes these the best? I only ask because my binocs are on the way out and being delegated to "truck" status, so they need a replacement.

Also, where are those made? Is that a Japanese brand?

I've done a side by side and the Kowa is outstanding. Super smooth focus wheel, the glass and coating that Kowa uses makes images "pop" just a tad more than the competition.
I think you'll be thrilled with them

You have me intrigued. I might have to take a trip up there to make the decision and grab a pair. Do you have them in the store?

This Kowa is made in China.

FWIW

Kowa (Prominar) rifle scopes used to have a good reputation before image-movement. They don't still sell any under their own name, do they?
