[QUOTE="willfrye027, post: 2035348, member: 114992"] Depends on what you mean by open country. good 10x42s mounted on a tripod are great out to 1000 yards or so. It’s amazing how much the tripod helps. Night and day...like open shots versus a scope! I hunt some pretty open country and use 15s mounted on a tripod to find game at long distance. But I would not use anything that cost less than $1000...there’s just not much in that price range worthwhile when it comes to high powered 15x binos. $1000 10x42s are great but the 15x requires better glass to be truly useful. Meopta, maven, Zeiss, and of course Swarovski are all good choices. I like my Leica duovids 10-15x50, but that is more than $1000 on the used market. [/QUOTE]
