Swarovski observation devices. - 10/17/16 09:32 PM
Swarovski loaned a pickup bed full of Binoculars, and spotting scopes to the Lone Survivor Benefit Match near College Station this weekend.
Dear gawd that glass is phenomenal! Binocs and/ or spotters on tripods at every stage for range officers to score hits with, and competitors to use for finding targets before shooting the stage. I just can't put into words the excellence of the image clarity! On one particular stage many of us that shot, or were waiting to shoot, got mesmerized by watching trace through the spotting scope that has the illuminated reticle (though we left it turned off). We literally watched every bullet through its entire flight path from 30' in front of the muzzle to 400 yards out. We got hypnotized by it.
One guy in our squad had brand new 12X Swaro binos with the range finder built in. Well, Swaro accomplished their mission. When I can save up enough I'm going to have to have some of those binoculars. They do the job of binoculars for scanning, they do the job of a range finder, and the glass is so good, that at 12X shot can be spotted extremely far away, doing somewhat of he job of a spotting scope, in a smaller more transportable package.
Excellent optics, as their reputation commands!
