Dad picked one up 2 yrs ago. Have and direct comparison to the same size Swarovski and felt they were close. We also use tiny ED50's for our hikes. I have not used a bigger lense scope yet but would like to try one. I think you could get used to the size. Would be fun to have an optics get together some weekend day, we really could get some comparisons! Someone plan it, I'd be willing to drive 4 hours for it.:bdid: This could be a costly outing! Just think of all the ticked off wives when we all come home wanting new optics :chuckle:

I could have saved up for one and she wouldn't have cared but looked at it side by side and for the difference the 2 had, the very little I could see anyways I couldn't spend the difference...not to mention the outstanding vortex warranty :tup:

Any tri-pod advice? Thanks!I picked up an Outdoorsmans medium tripod a few years back and honestly think it is the best tripod on the market. I put their pistol grip head on it and it works great but I will be replacing it this year. Not quite strong enough to hold the big glass rock solid. Its awesome with my binos and smaller spotter though.

that said, when setup properly it can withstand any windstorm and even my spastic hand s bumping into it all day. once I get it up there and can pan around super smooh all day I say that its worth the effort.
