  5. If you are stuck on a budget, I suggest you have a look around for a set of Opticron High resolutions on the bay. There is a set for about £100 at present. Ive stalked for years with a pair, and most folk i stalk with also highly rate my binoculars. Do not compare them to Zeiss/Leica etc.. but under conditions legal to shoot deer, i.e. hour before, Hour after sunset, I have never found my self in a position where they failed to provide me with enough information to make a decision to pull a trigger. I also use them at night foxing on the lamp, and at sensible ranges provide adequate informat
