I know about good glass [-; ..I'm a birder..and went from Bushnelle 59.00 optics to 350.00 Leupold Green Ring 10 x 42..Those are awesome birding binoculars..I plan to get a good scope..been reading tons of reviews..The 159.00 Nikons have no bad reviews and I've read alot of reviews..I still want to pick one up physically rather than by mail order..i 'm planning a trip to Bass pro.

Thanks Guys,
