Spotting scope recommendations.

[RAF-Mover]

Hi,
Any recommendations on spotting scopes
in the 200-300 dollar range?
I have a cheesy 90.00 bushnell that my older
eyes says needs to be replaced.
Pentax?
Burris?

Thanks
Gary,Calgary.

I had a 20x-50x Bushnell Trohy worth around $200 to use at the range and sold it. Not a clear scope.

I have a Nikon spotter .. I think made in China ... not sure. Anyway bought it used at Henry's Photo; it is pretty good optically. I think I paid too much but given the current US/Cdn exchange rate... I would look at the Nikon line and buy something in your budget from a US distributor....try Gr8Fuldoug who lists here...probably be able to get a new spotter for what I paid used....

Google Konus spotting scopes

I got an 80mm Konus from these guys that I am happy with.
The power dial is a little bit grity and the tripod is junk but the optics are nice.
