I have a set of Zen Ray ED3 8x43 Binoculars and have directly compared them with a set of swarovski el10x32. The image clarity would be very hard to tell the difference between the two. There is a bit of fuzzyness around the extreme edge with the ED3 while I did not notice any with the...

I am looking to buy a scope for my CZ550 american with a real nice wood stock and need some help finding it. I want a lightweight (20 oz or less?) scope that will be used for Hunting and shooting up to 800m or so, has a mil based reticle, power should be around 2-3x at min and somewhere from...
