Opinions on best 3-D binoculars
 
I'm in the market for a new pair of binoc's and was wondering what everyones opinion was of the different brands available. I have a pair of Bushnell 8X42 (probably cost less than $100 five or six years ago) that work fine outdoors most of the time, but after shooting indoor 3-D recently I'm not seeing the scoring rings on alot of targets. Maybe this is normal indoors. Does anyone else have this problem on 3-D targets indoors? Any opinions, good and bad would be appreciated.

Swarovski or Khales 8 X 42 ELs are great but the SLC's are very good. Lifetime Warranty.

I have a pair of Bushnell 8x42that I bought 2 years ago and I like them very much. I wanted a pair of Swarvoski bino but I can't justify the cost difference. I think that you would do well to look around at different binos and check out what makes one pair better than another forgetting price. The best pair of binos for you will be the ones that make you happy down the road so take all suggestions and then you have to make the final decission..
Good luck.

I shoot cheap 8X binos when I shoot the IBO Southern Triple Crown and shoot nicer ones for ASA as that is where I concentrate a little more. If I were to get serious about the National IBOs I would look hard at the Alpine Apex. They have an 8.5x50 that I borrowed for Rome last year and man they are as nice as any of the $1200 binos and cost in the $400 to 450 range. Sorry I do not have a web page for Alpine.


Another of the lower price range brands is Opti-Logic. They are nice and no where near the price of some of the high enders. Opti Logic
