[QUOTE="6.5Express, post: 562936, member: 34804"] I've got a leupold 12-40x60 HD now. I like that I can pack it around in a backpack without the weight of a bigger spotter and have been able to do a decent job of field judging / finding mule deer. BUT, when I was trying to field judge antelope at long distance this fall I couldn't do what I feel is possible from the bigger (80mm+) objectives. Some of the reviews that I've read about this scope compare it to swarovski, leica, etc. I know there's no free lunch, but I don't know that we can swing a $3,000+ spotting scope. For the way that we hunt, it would be ideal to have a big spotter for long distance work AND the smaller leupold HD for packing. I know when I finally decided to step up to swarovski bino's, I've never regretted it - not for a fraction of a second. But, I just don't think we can do the $3,000+ 80mm HD Swarovski (doesn't mean I don't want it). [/QUOTE]
