I’m looking for a good pair of dangerous game bino’s. Band name and the size. I currently own a pair of Lecia 10 x 42 geo’s and I’m looking for something a little smaller / lighter.
Thanks

I have the Leica 10x42s and went with the Leica 8x30 for the lighter carry glass. You can't get better.

Swaro 8x30 SLCs... The older ones were a bit lighter than the newer ones.

OR even better the EL 10x32 or 8x32 - that is the top of quality in this size...

Have you taken a look at the Vortex Viper 6x32? A very nice optic I think you'll really enjoy using

I personally love either the Swarovski 8x30 SLC or 8x32 EL

How do these compare to Leupold, or Nikon or some of the more expensive brands like Lieca, Swaro etc.

forget about it - if You have looked through a Swaro EL You will not look after a Votex bino anymore...

Agreed, the Vortex Viper will not compare to a Swaro, however, in it's price class it is excellent and better than most

Doug, how would you rate them against the Minox HG BR ASPH

P.S. On the CL post card, are you on the right or left?

Assume that is your father in middle

have you looked at Alpen? their not bad for the money.

I'm in the Red shirt.
The HG's are just shy of the Alpha Euros. You'll LOVE them
