Leupold v. Bushnell spotter

[Mark]

Anyone had any experience with either one of these scopes? Seem like good buys from reputable companies. I've got some of the Bushnell ED glass binos and I love them. Just curious if anyone had some feedback on the scopes?

I too have Bushnell ED binos. You can't beat them for the price. And, I'm looking for a new spotter in the 50-60mm range for backpacking. So, I'll look forward to any replies.

I have not tried them, but the Bushnell scope is a lot heavier which is the only reason I don't already have one.

I've got a B&L elite spotter for sale on another forum right now for $400. This is a 20-60x70mm scope that I used for backpacking, it weighs right at 40 oz. great higher end mid quality glass at a great price, pm me and I will send pics if interested. I think it would beat these two for the price.
