Title: Leupold BX-3 Mohave bino's 12x50 or Nikon Monarch 7 10x42
Post by: grizzlyadams on July 09, 2013, 12:00:22 PM: Tried out both and like them both. These 2 are in my price range and no higher. Any thoughts on which ones. I'm seriously leaning towards Leupold for customer service, warranty and I like the higher magnification. Suggestions are more than welcome.

I have the older style Leupold Mojave's and really like them. No complaints. My brither has Vortex Binos and they also look really well. expecially for the price.

Post by: grizzlyadams on July 09, 2013, 03:36:17 PM: Kinda what I thought. Thanks guys. Going with the Leupold mojave. Vortex is just not proven enough for me. When they've been around long enough I might look at them for the next pair down the road.

Post by: FLIZZ on August 16, 2013, 05:17:30 PM: Have an experienced optics guy run you through the "AMP" process of comparing Binos, you will come to find that the Monarch 7's are FAR superior glasses, dare I say better than Razor HD's? YEP! "But hey.....this is just advice, YOU CAN WHATEVER THE F*&% YOU WANNA DO!" -TMW

I agree on customer service. I took a pair of Leupold binos to the factory Monday night and left with security guard, got them back in mail on Thursday morning..When dropping off I stressed fact that my Elk season started in less then 2 weeks..Rather then repair the old ones (kids had done some damage when left in reach :bdid: ) they sent me brand new pair...Great Company, will be forever a loyal customer :brew:
