Check out Hawke binoculars online, I tried some out and really liked the way they felt and the optics seemed really good to me.

Go buy u a pair Redfields. Leupold bought them a while back and started putting their VRX2 glass in them. I held them next to the high priced bincos and the clairity and light was just as good. Im not blowing smoke. Just google them and read the reviews and that will convience u. And to convience u more, their only $159.99. Oh yeah they also have a lifetime garuntee like leuopold so if they get damanged u can send them back and they'll either send u a new pair or fix them.

If you are going with nikons atleast get the monarchs. I don't like them because nikons all have cheap flimsy eye cups. Go to thesamplelist.com and get the 8 x30 khales. Buy a very good quality set ONCE and be done with it, trust me!!!!! Been there done that!

Just got a catalog where Bass Pro is selling some Leupold binoculars for $119.00.
I actually bought a 10x monocular and like it. Its compact and clear (got it for $40.00).

I bought a pair of Leupold at Bass Pro for $99, and I love them. I compared them to Nikons and others in similar price range, nothing could touch the Leupold.
