[QUOTE="packgoatguy, post: 1611776, member: 27192"] not really looking at cost at this point. Just comparing to find the overall best tool for the job. I think my personal criteria would weigh the "weight" of the scope as almost as importantly as the clarity. I know a "heavier" scope is just going to get left home when push comes to shove... where a lighter weight one might make it into my pack. Biggest issue I have with the Kowa 550 vs the 500 isn't the cost, its the fact that one is double the weight of the other. That 14 ounces is a ton of weight difference in my book. [/QUOTE]
