This list of optics will deliver the headache-free surveillance capability most hunters require and leave a few bills in your bank account, too.

After detailed comparisons at the big sporting good stores for optics, features, performances and values, I kept coming back to these mid-range Leupold BX-2 Cascade 10X42 Binoculars. On the net, there are high consumer reviews praising the benefits these little binocs offer. I found the small size, lighter weight, excellent edge-to-edge clarity, tact sharpness (with great DOF), superb build quality and great dollar value too much to ignore! For the investment, these BX-2's really are overall an Excellent buy and outperform competition at sometimes 2-3x their purchase price! Their ergonomic design fits extremely well in my hands and provides quick and precise easy adjustments. I found my BX-2's also are excellent in very low light conditions, pulling in details and light beyond my seeing abilities...Ready for the Deer Hunt. At the range, we were able to compare the BX-2's to a $1,600 pair of Swarovski 10X42's. We were all blown away at just how close in optical performance and clarity these were to a very respectable, 5x the price professional binocular...Wow! With a lifetime warranty and the Leupold reputation for fine quality optics, I expect to pass down my used BX-2's, still in perfect condition!

One of the smartest buys I ever did was buy a pr of Steiners 8 x30 and i think Safari model (worn off) even at the basic level these deliver vision above others Ive seen costing lotsa$$$ more. and I can scan for long periods without eye strain. They are little rippers! (trans. Australian male expletive denoting highpraise) Well done steiner!
