[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1486429, member: 12443"] A friend recently bought a set of these and his brother bought the 20x version. They both also have the Swaro 15x56. Havent heard any reports yet. I have a set of Minox 15x58 which Minox replaced now with 15x56. Weve compared the Minox, Swaro, and 15x56 Leica Geovids side by side and frankly its a tough call. We did not try low light conditions because we always quit glassing before that time frame happens. It's simply too dangerous to be stumbling around on steep sidehills after dark in search of a dead deer. BUT, If you were to take a poll here of strictly PA long range hunters, you would find that virtually all use twin spotting scopes in brackets mounted on tripods for glassing. Some also have others like those mentioned above, but for the serious long range glassing, the twin spotters get used, and they are not always the very large most expensive ones. You can ask Joel Russo, Kevin Cram, Bruce Baer or anyone you like, and thats the answer you will get from all of them. As for the op, id hate to see him spend a considerable amount that maybe wont work well for him anyway. I have several small spotters here that might work for him if he wants to try. Pm me and we can discuss it if your interested. [/QUOTE]
