What kind of binoculars would be good for scouting?


Well, I've been playing airsoft for a while and I keep getting hit long range. I have an AK-47 with no rail, but I got really used to it. I want someone to reccommend a good pair of binoculars so I can sort of scout out the area before I go in. All I can find are star gazing ones and bird watching ones. Also, if it can be cheaper than $50 that would be good too.

    Hum? Cheaper than $50. Not too good then. To scout an area, you want a wide field of view so you can see a lot of territory at once. These are not the greatest in the world but they do have a very wide field of view. The eye relief kind of sucks, but if you do not wear glasses that might not be too much of a problem. A little more than $50 but not too much more.

    This pair does not have the field of view of the above pair but they are less than $50. A little better eye relief but not much better.

    Here is another not too bad a pair. The field of view is not so good as the first pair and the price is not so good as the 2nd pair. But still not too bad.

    That is about it.
