Epicurean pariah - Celestron Ultima 65 Spotting Scope, 18-55x65mm Zoom 52248

I shoot the standard Gamo targets set in pellet traps at 35 and 45 yards from my upper deck. I could not see the the hits in the black rings around the bull without marching down or around the back 40 and pulling the target. Now I can shoot and look after each shot. The image is clear and crisp and my old bones appreciate the rest. I like this solid piece of optics, and although a bit heavy for mini tripods the Celestron works great on my ancient fully adjustable camera tripod. This item is worthy of consideration if it fills your need.
