Beardo Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Bushnell H20 are great for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigeonblasterian Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I got a pair of Bushnell H20 10x50 a month ago after dropping and breaking my old pair of binoculars. Very clear and sharp and just the job when out shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispti Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) I have had a pair of these for some time now, http://www.amazon.co.uk/7dayshop-10x42-Waterproof-Binoculars-shoulder/dp/B002OM61YQ They are not the best in the world, but they work, and are good enough to spot pigeons feeding or flighting, across a field or 2 Edit to add; I know they are currently unavailable, but its worth keeping an eye open for them Edited June 20, 2011 by chrispti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprocket Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Thanks for replies, Bushnell 10X50 seem to be favourite, any model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian_in_the_midlands Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I recently bought a pair of Minox BL 8x44 BR binoculars. So far I am pleased with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Sprocket I bought two pair of the BK7 10X42 Roof prism bino's from 7 day shop.com, for £19.99 delivered, they get used for pigeon and for rabbit spotting on the moors up to 450/500yrds, even at £34.99 delivered they are still worth it Regards Maxwell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutty Boots Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Aother vote here for the Bushnell H20, think I've been using them for about 2 years, were a present from the kids if I remember right. Not too heavy so comfy enough to carry & hold for long periods, mine are the 8 x 42 though, good piece of kit & you wont be too heart broken if you lose or manage to break them.
