Guest ZKS90 Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Re: Spotting scopes Hey..I just bought the Nikon 15 by 45 by 60. I bought it mainly due to the fact that i own nikon binoculars. I love this spotting scope. The glass is very clear..Great warranty..They got this new thing called the no fault policy. I bought the camoflauge one which comes with a window mount as well and a tripod..kind've a cheaper tripod, but the window mount is the best. It also comes with a case. I paid about $400 for the whole set up. I use it for out west hunting muleys, elk , antelope, and deer in minnesota. I also checked Leupold, but just didn't like it as much as the nikon. Go look thorugh one at a dealer. you'll see the difference. Good Luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
too_pointer Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Re: Spotting scopes ZK, do you think your Nikon spotting scope would work out for target practice at say 100 yards ? I have tried some cheaper ones that will not work good enough for seeing bullet holes at 100 yard ranges. I would like one, but need to spend as little as I can get away with too_cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
