Awesome Binos at the price point
These are fantastic binos with super clear glass. There is no edge distortion and the colors really pop. I just go back from a military expedition to a desert and had brought these along. Far superior to anything other glass on that particular battlefield!
Used to bracket in artillery and survived in one of the harshest environments on the planet!
I am an avid PRS shooter and also use them to spot impacts. Eye relief is good, but I would strongly advise that you pair these with a good tripod to effectively spot impacts.

Impressive
I got the Viper HD 12x50's I'm impressed with all the features. They are exceptionally clear, easy to focus and light weight. I was surprised that even being 12x they are easy to hold with no blur. Lens caps are also a nice touch. Got these just in time for my coues whitetail hunt. They worked great. while I didn't bag the big one I still got a decent coues. Id definetly buy these again.

Game Changer!!!!!
Strayed away from Leopold which has always been my go to brand and am so glad I did!! This glass is worth every penny and then some! I hunt high country along the Washington/Canadian border where the sage brush can be the sizes of a small house it’s a true challenge to spot let alone identify male or female but with this clarity it feels like I have the advantage now! The terrains that Washington offers, forces me to be pretty rough with my gear (western side it’s nothing but rainforest and rain/ eastern side it high altitudes and sagebrush) but When it comes to vortex they exceed in that factor. Rain or shine with the V.I.P warrenty I feel comfortable pushing my self to go anywhere! Currently I’m in Hawaii on vacation and Im still are packing the Viper HDs everywhere I go! From spotting boar to humpback wales they do it all! Thanks Vortex!
