Upgrading my Bins (1 Viewer)

I have a pair of Pentax XCF 8 40, 8.2 and they have served me well for 3 years, but it is time to upgrade!

I bought these for £60 in an otlet in Cheshire, which I have forgotten the name of..

I want to be able to see better and more but do not want to spend too much.

Any recommendations please?

How about a Minox BF 8x42 http://www.cameralandny.com/optics/minox.pl?page=62034

Beware, or you may quickly find your budget moving upwards!

That was my starting budget but it's sneaked up some now. If you're planning any trips to the States I'd say wait a buy some over there, you'll get more for your money.

I've found a few places that are selling the old style Bushnell Excursion for £109-£125. These are phase coated so may be good value. I tried some and thought they were good, however I'll leave more expert opinions to others who actually own them.

I am planning to get some Vortex Diamondbacks for about £140. Checked some out yesterday and was very impressed, although they didn't have the model I wanted in-stock.

Cheers
