I was helping a guy who was considering a pair of 15s and could not locate this second article I have a PDF of here.  It looks like it is gone iff the web, but I found the PDF I made and saved of it.  I think it is as good an article comparing these choices as I have ever seen.

The Docter can be found used for great prices from time to time, but they are big and heavy.  My family owns Swaro SLC.  My buddy bought Vortex Kaibab after I told him that when I was researching them I was very favorably impressed w/it, but went Swaro because it fit my face better.  Now that he has had it a couple years, when we are rockchuck shooting together, I use his and he uses mine as often as we use our own and the Kaibab is not a bad choice.

The big 15's are a game changer when it comes to spending hour after hour looking for game.
