Get one of the better Bushnell lines and don’t look back. 10x42 about the best all around size. Check out Leupold and Vortex too. I got some $100-plus Bushnells that have been awesome. I once pulled up on a law enforcement standoff outside a house. Got out with my Bushnells. An officer who’d just got back from a tour as scout-sniper with the Marines in Iraq saw my glass and said “Nice binoculars!”
“Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.”
On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

Another vote for Bushnell 10X42 This is what I have as well. Very happy with them. I am glassing in timber, haven't used them at long distances.

Where do you hunt? Woods only , plots and fields only , or combo. You don't need 10x42 for the woods. Get a size and power tailored for your use. Vortex has something for everyone.

If you hunt in the woods with maybe a food plot or two, quality 8X32 is just right. Much bigger and they feel like a boat anchor around my neck.

I have a set of Leupolds that work just fine for what I need. Reasonable in costs at Academy but can catch them on sale too.

Cut your budget in half with the Vortex Crossfires. I got mine from Midway for $149 shipped.

I'd suggest bumping up to the Diamondbacks. They are not much more at all but are much, much better. I've had both.
