    I've read several good comments about the Leupold Yosemite 6x30. Cabelas currently has them on sale for $75.

    I don't know what you intend to do with them but 10X may be too much power in the woods. It's also about the upper limit of what most people can hand hold without too much wobble.

    Optics are one of those purchases best made in person. Everyone's eyes are different and you may not like what may looks good to me.

    I have a pair of these. For the price, they are quite nice. They are crisp and quite clear. IIRC, the BuckHorn line is private labeled by Bushnell exclusively for Cabela's. If you're looking for "truck glass" to go with your "truck gun", these will be perfect.

    Just ordered a set of redfield Rebel 10x42 Binos. I red good reviews but there is not that many so I figured I would just give them a try Redfield is now a company of leupold so they should be pretty good. I will update after they arrive and i get to check them out
