Vortex Viper HD Spotting Scope 15-45 x 65

I was looking into this this winter as well. Imo I would save up for the razor. I ended up with 2 scopes, the vanguard endeavour hd 20-60x82 (which is rated higher than the viper on some birding forums) and I also acquired a vortex razor 11-33x50. They are both good spotters in their own right but I prefer the razor by a wide margin. There is a razor on the ee right now for a little more than you would be spending on a new viper. Fwiw looking through the viper and diamondback side by side, I couldn't see a great difference.
