[QUOTE="rewild, post: 2335549, member: 119266"] I've tried many different binos and rangefinders (Bushnell, Nikon, Vortex, Leupold, Swarovski) and harnesses (Bino-Sock, Leupold, Badlands, Sitka, Kuiu) over 30 years and believe I found the perfect setup, this season, that I'm sticking with from here on out. I got the Vortex Fury HD 10x42 binos w/built in rangerfinder, which were slick... no more switching back and forth between binos and rangefinder trying to find your target. The image is sharp, have decent light gathering at dusk and dawn, and the rangefinder was spot on (compared to the Leupold I just sold). They are heavy, but that was compensated, in my mind, by not having to carry 2 optics and switch back and forth between them, and with the harness, I didn't even notice the weight. I got Kuiu's new Pro harness (2nd version). It keeps the weight off your neck, the straps are thin so there was no problem putting a pack on over the harness, it keeps the binos tight to your chest, the lid folds away from you so it doesn't get in the way of getting the binos in and out, the lid holds with adjustable elastic so there are no loud snaps or magnets, it's easy to open and close with one hand, you can leave the lid open and, since the case is semi-rigid, the binos slide in and out easily with one hand, there are removable tethers to keep the binos from falling to the ground, but can be easily unsnapped to remove and share binos, and there are elastic side pouches for wind checker, calls, etc and I added the pocket on the bottom for flashlight, knife, firestarter, etc. For the first time ever, I found this setup to work easily and flawlessly without having to think about it or putz around with it.... it's like it's not even there.
