Vortex Razor 85 or Swarovski ATS 65 (1 Viewer)

Hi all! Going to go down the USED route as the resell value and all that I’d better plus I’m on a budget! So I’m looking at the scopes listed above both 20-60x

I’m getting Swarovski EL 8.5x42 binoculars so will the vortex quality show from using high end bins? I really want the best for my money and if I could I’d go all out on the ATX line but it’s way out my price range

Thanks for any help

You will be happy with the ATS 65 and the zoom range is usable up to 60x when you need such power.
 
Up until about 2011 there were some ATS scopes without the low dispersion glass, so make sure to get the HD version, which has the "HD" lettering on the helical focusser. There were also some non-HD ATM scopes.
