Nikons and Leupold binoculars suck.
LOL! JK. I like the higher models in both of them when it comes to scopes, but I don't have much experience with them as a bino. I do recall checking out the Nikon binos and liking them though. I still preferred the Pentax in the same $$$ inve$ted. A guy can't go wrong with either of them.
