the Leica weight is a tad over 1.5 kg
Swarovski 1.6 kg with the 65mm/weight of the 85mm lens 1.150 kg and eye piece 840grams

what do you like the most?? your Winchester or Remington?

The Winchester, Rems are a thing of the past, build quality/ finish of the later ones is very poor in my opinion, cycling the bolt is like chucking a golf ball down a 24' pipe. Bring back the old Mohawk and early 700's, sad to say.

I have used Swarovski spotting scopes and know they are great performers. But how about Nightforce? Any first hand experiences to share?

Swarovski spotting scopes are remarkable and there is no doubt about it. I had bought Swarovski from Welcome to OpticAuthority.com - opticauthority.com and got a great deal last season. But How about Nightforce? Has anyone used them?

Mark the Nightforce was very good, optically the Swarovski and the Leica where a cut above with the Nightforce being a little bulky for the pack.
Cheers Rob.
