Picked up 10X50 Leopold Mesa Binos
saylean:
I just bought my newest little toy...a 10X50 Leopold Mesa binos....used them a bit today and man were they sharp, even in low light. A bit on the heavy side...but the way I figure, I need to get stronger anyway, so who cares, I will get used to it. I am looking forward to using them in field. Anyone else have them? They got good ratings on Cabelas...

Leopold makes good optics that the working man can afford. I picked up a pair of the 10x42 cascades 2 years ago and they have made classing much nicer without the eye strain yet they are just the right size to pack around.

GoldTip:
I have an older pair of the 10x42 in porro prism from Leupold, and I have had many years of rough use with them and excellent results. When comparing them side by side in real life hunting situations with Zeiss and Swaro's. I can only find a 2-3 minute difference with the High Dollar bino's in how early they work effectively for my eyes, or how late into dusk they will be helpful. They just don't justify the price in my mind. I am 40 years old now, and maybe as my eyesight declines the high dollar market will see a purchase from me. But for now I can not find a GOOD reason to look any further than my Leupy's.

i bought a pair last year opening morning last year got out of the truck wanted to see how the did in very low light told my buddy there was 4 does and a nice buck at the tree line he thought I was nuts he shot that deer when it got light.
saylean:
Have used the binos for a few months now..have to say I am very happy with them so far. I have used them in rain, hail, low light, normal light, brush, woods, etc...work great. Very happy to have purchased them and would recommend them to whoever wants a quality pair of binos for 200 bones.
