  • In this video Jeff and Bob go over the two main spotting scopes we take with us on all of our hunts, The guys talk pros and cons of both spotters and even show you what max power looks like through both scopes at 1100 yards. 48 power and 60 power is quite the difference take a look for yourself!

    Great video. I have been on the hunt for a new spotting scope & was questioning this exact comparison & you guys just answered all my questions. Thanks again, Happy hunting & God Bless 🤙🏼

    I’m running the 65mm. Works good so far for everything I use it for here in Idaho.

    Looking at my first spotting scope right now. This review was super helpful. Likely to get the 65 now.

    Nice! I'm in the market for a spotter right now and this is exactly what I was wondering. Do you think you would still choose the 65 over the 85 with the diamondback series scopes? I don't have 4 figures to spend on hunting gear at the moment ;)

    I am close to pulling the trigger on a Vortex scope and this helped. I didn't notice any chromatic aberration in either scope in your side by side comparison. What have you experienced in your use as far as aberration goes? Thanks!

    • @PNWild
      @PNWild  ปีที่แล้ว

      It becomes apparent at bigger magnifications and in certain lighting but hasn’t been a huge issue

    Was looking for this. Exactly this. The right amount of talk and explanation.. footage of both scopes so we can compare… this is just perfect. Thank you so much. Gotta get mine this Monday. Btw, it’s just me, or the 85 shows better colors?

    fellows great review and comparison, I just got a Athlon 65 but I am using it for night sky viewing and I need to be able to carry it on my bicycle when I am bicycle touring down in South America next year. I almost got the Vortex but I got a really great deal on the Athlon so I went with it. I appreciate the review . Cheers and thank you.

    I have 65, easier to carry where I go. At 300 yards I can count pine needles on trees. Good enough for me. I don’t need any more than that. My regret is I didn’t get angled body.

    Want to sell the 85mm to a broke emt like me please. Lol. I'm rocking the basic 400 vortex scope. It's nice, but I have seen through the better and bigger ones and it truly doesn't compare.
