A very nice spotting scope - Leupold 15-45x60 Straight SX-1 Ventana Spotting Scope

This is my second spotting scope, and I will likely be my last at least for a while. The range I use is limited to 300 yards, and it works well out to that range. It is pushing it at 300 yards, but it is still perfectly usable at that range. I cannot say if it would go out to 400 or 500 yards. The case is nice and the tripod is much nicer than I had thought it would be for a kit. I do not put my scopes through too much in the way of rough handling, so I cannot speak to whether it is usable out in the rough. In the end, if you are looking for a nice spotting scope for out to 300 yards, I do not believe you could do better than this one.
