Thanks for watching! Same to you, best of luck this season💪💪

Enjoyed the video and the information sharing. I have learned to glass, when I use a spotting scope, with both eyes open which totally reduces eye strain. I have two spotting scopes, an old B&L x60mm and a Sightron x65 and they fit my needs simply because I use a spotting scope less than 5% of the time. If I need to see something more than a mile away I simply pick up and move. The terrain can change a lot in 2 or 3 miles and you may not be able to see into those terrain features from a distance so it is better to just move. Excellent video though for those that may use spotting scopes more than I.

Thanks for the informative video. You guys under estimated the range use. It takes a lot to be able to see .223 bullet holes at 200 yards. I hope you cover different applications in more dept in a video. When i am at the range, I care the least about ruggedness. All I need is clarity and eye relief especially at high magnifications like 60x.

Great video and fair opinions. I just looked through these scopes all setup side by side. 750 yards and beyond. I could not tell a difference in picture quality. I was reading writing on a gas pump at 750 yards easily with all three. This was mid day, bright conditions. The cost difference to me did not justify itself. Bought the Diamondback and spent the extra cash on a window mount and tripod. Lighting conditions will likely show differences between the three but for me and what my usage will be the Diamondback is perfect. I also did the same comparison with Viper binoculars and went with Diamondback HD 10-50’s.

Have you compared these three outside? Was looking for something a little more definitive like the razor has slightly better colour, contrast etc, but is hitting diminishing returns and not worth 3x the price.

Great job 👌 Brady the information was fantastic very informative The video was is spot on. You answered a few questions for me Thank you God's Blessings to you all and a safe hunting season

Target acquisition is exactly why I prefer the straight! I love hunting open country deer in NM and AZ! I have a Viper 20-60x85 and will not be hiking in with it, but instead from the truck and basecamp and short distance on foot. My question is for my style of hunting, would the Razor HD 11-33x50 be a good choice for going to the next ridge and searching another 1000 yards of open country? Keep in mind open country does not mean devoid of terrain and desert vegetation from yucca's to pinion and junipers.

How would you compare the gen 1 vs gen 2 razor spotting scopes? Do you prefer the knob style focus on the gen 1 or the helical style on the gen 2? Is there quilting difference of the 2 in sight picture?

I've got some vortex 10x40 binoculars very clear glass,I've been looking for a spotting scope.i noticed you have 3 and there's only 2 of you😀. I'm actually thinking of getting the 16-48x65 mainly because of the price. I just can't allow myself to spend more.

I have the Vortex Crossfire binoculars. Recently upgraded to the 12x50 Dimaomdback Hd. Night and day difference. I can now see down into shadowed canyons, and into the sun. Makes you wonder, how much game did you miss seeing with the cheapest glass? Was that worth not saving another $100-200? Nope.

Can you do a review on the Swarovski spotting scopes?

great video! i need a spotting scope for target shooting to see 100 yards for my 223 and 556. I am not a hunter but might use it for bird watching. Seems like diamondback is best bet. How do these compare to the $180 celestrons? what’s the best value spotting scope out there for the money?

For your application, I'd get the cheapest spotting scope you can find. You probably don't need 60 magnification, so you should look at 48 (that'll save you a lot right there and improve the image quality). These more expensive ones really get into the nitty gritty of saving the tiniest percents of light through various means, but that's mainly relevant to trying to spot deer at 1500 yards in a dawn and dusk low light hunting environment. For middle of the day range shooting at 100 yards, you really really don't need to spend this much money. You'll need a tripod too, and don't get sold the super expensive carbon fiber ones (again mainly relevant for saving weight in a backpack hunt, and they cost hundreds of dollars). Just buy any that's the height you need and has good reviews as being stable.

No video through the scope outside????

I have the first diamondback before HD still a good spotting scope for the low price but wish it was the HD . One day when I hit the Lotto numbers I will upgrade

I just picked one up off eBay. It doesn't do well at 60x, but I like that it's pretty light-weight for an 80mm scope. Bottom line, does the original Diamondback spotting scope work? Or do I need to look at investing in something else?

Maybe a dumb question but if you rotate the angled scope on the tripod, are you looking at crooked image?

I am still torn between a spotter and those Kaibab binos.

I'm looking to shoot steel a mile to 2,000 yards. Will the Viper HD serve that purpose?

My rule of thumb is: If you want to use a spotting scope for its intended purpose and actually validate what you're looking at, get the best one you can afford. I bought the Diamondback and it's great for the gun range. Other than that, when I'm trying to identify birds hundreds of yards away, it's really difficult to get any detail. For the money it's hard to beat a spotting scope in its price range, but most binos do the job better than it with more clarity.

I just purchased Viper 10x42 binos and diamondback 20-60x85 spotting scope. Waiting for delivery. New to these types of optics but carry a photography background. I found your comment about binos interesting since they would be different magnifications but I do know what you mean by clarity. The binos simply dont have that reach so I feel its comparing apples to oranges. With that said, my though process was to get a little better glass for the wider field of view searching and a more budget friendly option for the spotting scope. Do you think I will be disappointed with the Diamondback spotting scope pairing it with the Viper binos? I will be using the scope mostly for the range but also take trips to national parks throughout the year and would like to bring it along for those for wolf/bear watching. Not a bird/animal expert but love taking pictures of my travels so it would share time on the tripod with the camera. Thats why I opted for more the better quality on binos.

Lots of wind but very little info

This is one of the most dishonest reviews I have ever watched. You never did any comparison of the scopes in real world use you just thought this one is more expensive and should have better glass so it must be the best.

Dude can spot a whataburger from 1000 yards, no problem. 🤡
