Nikon prostaff or Alpen?

Trying to decide btwn the Nikon Prostaff 20-60x82 or the Alpen 20-60x80.
Both have angled eye, are water and fog proof, & fully multi coated. There is a significant price diff. what will I get with the Nikon that I won't from the Alpen for the extra cost? Will be used for hunting and wildlife viewing.
thanks in advance.

Hi

About the only thing you will get with the Nikon is the option of other eyepieces. That's unusual for a scope at this price, but Nikon has not been good at getting these available, so it may be academic. Both are great scopes for the money, but I see no other adavntage with the Nikon.

Thanks for the input. I have the ability to get this nikon for $379 or this Alpen for $305 using a "pro deal" our company has. what would you do?
does the nikon use better glass? any optical advantages of either (i.e. clarity, etc.)?

Hi

For the little extra, I'd get the Nikon with the idea that I might be able to get an optional eyepiece if I ever need one and, yes, the Prostaff did score ever so slightly better in terms of resolution.
