    Spotting scope dilemma

    good point. The Vanguards might not be much of a step up. However, I just can't justify purchasing an alpha (both because I don't want to have that conversation with my wife :D and because I do feel that you reach diminishing returns well before Alpha territory ie there are scopes that do...

    Finally got to play with a Leica Vector!!

    I know a fellow that lost one in Afghanistan. He's looking at a statement of charges supposedly around $9k. Ouch. (If he pays anything, it won't be that much, though.)
