[QUOTE="Csbc4fun, post: 2551006, member: 114785"] This may not apply to your use for packing and hunting, but did want to follow up since others in this thread mentioned Kowa. Wanted a quality scope for mostly shooting at the range for out to 1000 yard hits on steel. Purchased a well known brand 80mm mentioned in this thread. Spent over $1000 and was ultimately very frustrated with the quality of the view and the type of focus apparatus. Sold it. Apparently theses work well for other uses. Purchased a Kowa 773. The difference was very apparent in better view quality and ease of focus. Phone scoping is also much better. Well worth the money for my use. I would recommend you carefully evaluate your expectation and intended use so that you are not disappointed. I did not realize that my desired use required very high view quality not found in the generic brands no matter how much money you save on them. [/QUOTE]
