What Spotting Scope for Less than $1500
Interested in a spotting scope for this season. Been happy with my Vortex Viper 10x42 binos but wanting something with more range so am looking at spotting scopes. Not interested in the $3000 price tag of the top of the line. Just want to find bedded van isl blacktail bucks inside 600-1000 yards.
Got a recommendation?

Keep your eye out for the leupold sx4. I’m not sure if they’re available in Canada just yet, but they’re going to be direct competition with the viper.

Theres a Viper on Gunpost for $800 Killer deal! They're about $1400 new, I just bought one in Armstrong off Ryan at Monashee Outdoors, love it so far!

I would look for a used Swaro or Zeiss.

Viper is a great spotter for the dollar

I agree with Mark the Viper is pretty good for the money but if possible pick up an used Vortex Razor 16-48x65.
Re: What Spotting Scope for Less than $1500
I've got a razor 20-60 x 85 with a manfrotto w/ rc 128 fluid head. Great scope/tripod for the price.
