Lol, $600 is a small bino budget, and yet you've ruled out Vortex.
Steiner Predator 10x42
Coming back to this thread to thank everyone for all the opinions, knowledge and PMs I recieved. It helped alot. Unfortunately, I just got laid off so all toy purchases are on hold for the foreseeable future.
I've owned Vortex optics in the past and simply don't like them. They work for some people but not me. I know my budget was/is small, but considering my my use is relatively casual compared to alot of hardcore hunters, I'd rather keep the bino budget smaller and be able to shoot and fish more.
I am happy with my Athlon midas 10x42 that I got on sale for under 300
I have used BAUSCH & LOMB Discoverer 10X42 ever since I can remember.
The only bad experience I had was leaving them in the bush after field dressing a fair size buck. It snowed all night & was extremely cold but LT(308 LOVER) somehow found them the next day.:mrgreen:
Eve has used Vortex VIPER 10X42 for a long time & loves them.
I have the 10x42 Vortex Diamondbacks. It's have nice clear glass, and tough as nails. Open bridge design, very comfortable to hold. I found a nice review about it here- https://opticsaddict.com/
