[QUOTE="mbarnsr2, post: 936518, member: 72599"] We hunted last fall with both the 20x60 and a Leupold 15x45, and to tell you the truth, the Vortex put that Leupold to absolute shame. Don't get me wrong, I am fully aware that the 15x45 Leupold is not some of their better stuff, but when compared to Vortex glass of similar price range, I was totally blown away. Having been a very long time Leupold consumer of mroe than 30 yrs, it took a lot for me to make that statement. I was able to clearly see a piece of antler of a bedded buck from over 2 miles away. I could not get enough resolution with the 15x45 to even see that kind of detail. But on the other hand, I have had to return 3 separate pieces of Vortex glass for replacement due to problems, and after only 6 or 8 months of ownership and use. Compared to Leupold, of which I finally had to send a pair of glasses I bought in the 1980's in for alignment and resealing, I would say Vortex has a ways to go in durability. But considering their no questions asked policy, I had new optics in my hands in less than 2 weeks, so... [/QUOTE]
