[QUOTE="wjschmaltz, post: 349356, member: 6150"] The difference is certainly noticeable. Not enough to swing me into making the jump though. I'd never judge anyone for upgrading gear. Make it how you want and spend it how ya want. I feel like I've never had a problem getting a good judgement with my $400 vortex binos. If I identify something way out there, I either get closer or bust of the 65mm razor HD. The only room I see I could upgrade is that there is a significant advantage to a 85mm swaro for sheep and goat hunting, but I don't think I'm willing to take the weight penalty. Also I can tell my eyes are aging, maybe from being a desk jockey, and there is noticeably improved eye relief with the swaro binos. It would cost me $5,000 to upgrade what I have (that works and I've piled a ton of animals with) to swaro. That much $$$ could buy a hunting trip to Kodiak and have money leftover to take me and my wife on a fishing charter. That's how I make decisions and I'm going with experience over things on this one. At least for now. [/QUOTE]
