[QUOTE="fnlights, post: 2778170, member: 117046"] extremely helpful first hand experience right here! I have called most of the companies that carry the Kowa and they all agreed that the 77 and 88 are two of the best spotting scopes in their class. When I asked most of them, it was really a toss up between who would recommend the 77 or who would recommend the 88 - like literally almost a 50/50 split. They all pretty much agreed that the 88 was just slightly better optically than the 77, but those that preferred the 77 said it left nothing behind the 88 and preferred it for hunting because of the size and weight. A few mentioned that you would only see a difference in the fluorite lense when looking at stuff with vivid colors - like birds. Being that I will only use it for hunting, I am going to go with the 77! [/QUOTE]
