    I have no doubt that these are the best when it comes to glass.

    There is something better however.

    Use the same money (perhaps a little more), and get a thermal monocular.
    The one thing the thermal does that the binos can't do is prevent things from hiding. Day or night, you'll know. Once you know where something is, any binos are fine at that point.

    My pulsar thermal monocular is 10x more valuable then the best binocular IMO.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Agreed. I just got a pair of Accolade XP 50's. But in the daytime you still need a good pair of binoculars after finding something with the thermal.

      Nothing wrong with those. Or Leica. Both make great glass as well. The only downside to Leica is the crappy warranty. Swarovski beats them hands down. I'd rather have a $400 rifle and a $2000 pair of binoculars instead of the other way around. You can't kill what you never see.

        I appreciate it but I’ve already got the thermal. I’m upgrading my binos

          I should really get a commission or something, I've sold several pairs for them.


          El or slc?

                Mine are EL 50's, although the SLC nocs are excellent as well.

                It's almost the time of the year to start seeing some decent deals on used ones....happens every spring.

                  Just buy the Bushnell Perma focus or Insta focus for $69.00. They will do anything the high dollar units will do, even better you don't have to keep jacking with a focus lever at different distances !!!!

                        I have a pair of 10x42 SLC and I feel just a little bit inferior every time I look through a pair of EL Swaros. The SCLs are GREAT. The ELs are GREATER!!!! Buy the EL and just think of me and my SLC every time you put them to your eyes.

                            I have a pair of Vortex 12x50 that have proven to be very clear.
