I have 4 Nikon scopes. 1 buckmaster, 1 omega, and 2 monarch's. I have Nikon ATB 10x42 binos and Nikon range finders. It is obvious I am a big Nikon fan. With that being said, I looked through a buddies Swarvorski 8x42 and all I can say is "wow"!!! Different league but very tempting to drop the coin. For the money Nikon works well for me...
