Guest andymansavage Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 I'm headed to cabelas tomorrow to trade in my Alaskan Guides towards a pair of Euros. I have tried them side by side with the big 3 and they are awesome. Just called customer service and had them grab a pair for me to pick up. Anyone ever used them? I have read a lot of reviews and am pumped to test them out myself on mulies, elk, and (cross my fingers) desert sheep this fall.

Texan_Til_I_Die Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Let me know how you like them when you start carrying them in the field. I'm considering an upgrade from my Steiners next year. BTW - Do you know who makes the Euros? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Colorado Bob Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 Besure to check out Lieca & Swaro also. I like my Lieca's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest andymansavage Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 Bob, I did check them out as well. I really like the leica, but the euros are a little brighter to my eyes. The swaros seemed to be slightly better optically, but they were quite a bit heavier than the cabelas. It didn't hurt that the euros were $600 less either. I really like the Leica Duovids if I had the $$. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest andymansavage Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 I took them out last night. Didn't make it to the hills, just around the house. These things are Awesome! Half an hour after the sun went down I could see every detail of brush and trees at 500 yds. I'll get out in the hills this week to see if they can help me find some elk sheds.
