Take ear plugs ,the sound of wounded goats still haunts me to this day from hunting them with bows as young fellas.

After a number of pairs of binos (mid priced) I have settled on 10x32s for big country and 8x25s for bush/slip hunting. The difference in clarity between 10x42s and good 10x32s is minimal for the...

The diamondbacks are the best bang for buck you will get. For $400, or even less depending where you buy, you cant go wrong.

I've got Leica 7x42 from memory. Went for lower power and more light gathering as I just glass all day with no need to differentiate animals. Almost bought these, then found the Leica second...

Have a pair of leica 10×25 and they fit in a pocket and get used a lot more than if i had a pair of 10×40s. But (there is always one) they are useless as it gets dark

Everyone's eyes are different. Try looking through a few sets before buying. If you do a lot of evening hunting, 8/10 x 42's are the way to go.

Swaro 8x25 CL pockets are very good. You really need to look through a pair.

My sister has recently bought a pair of these binos and seeing as they seem very popular and are often reccomended by others as a good entry level binocular, I have swiped them "new out of the box"...

Most of my shots are around 200m in the engine compartment. IMHO they drop better than the 243 (I was using 80gr fed powershoks on that).

I hunted a lot of fallow with a 243, then I got a 300BLK. What I noticed is that the 243 did considerably more meat damage across a larger area. The 300BLK has dropped them on the spot more, and does...
