Monocular or binos? Inb4 durr hurr just look through your rifle optic dumdum. - I am armed with shuriken so no optic.
>>64566097Depends on your needs. For static observation, binos are superior because of their combined FOV. A monocular is more compact and works best if you need magnification to PID targets while orienteering through the mountains of Virginia.If you have 1 eye or strong eye dominance, go for the monocular anyway.
>>64566097>Monocular or binos?NV or thermal? Purpose? Some you can use hand held, helmet mounted, AND rifle mounted. So look at all the options and decide what best meets your needs.
>>64566097Mono is 1/2 the weight. A sonic ear would be preferred anyway.
>>64566097Get the vortex with the ranging reticle.
>>64566097I picked up a Vortex Solo RT this year. I wanted a ranging reticle and I valued light weight over FOV. so I went Monocular instead of binocular. But if you're not humping it, the only reason to go for a mono over a bino is price.
>>64566097I like that little 8x Vortex monocular that you used for your OP pic. Doesn't have a super short eye relief so it can be used with or without (sun)glasses. If it's too short without wearing them, the little eye cup unscrews and pulls out into a detent to stay extended to give you something to rest against.>I am armed with shuriken so no optic.lol
>>64568915A what now?
>>64566097Put an optic on your shuriken
>>64566133Well, in really static observation, where you might need high magnification (20-60x, for instance), single-lens devices regain utility. But that's only if you wanna have a forearm-sized optic and observe something really closely, or bullet drop. You'll still need binocs for more general eyeball-sweeping, to spot what you wanna bother fiddling the real zoom onto.>Captcha: XXP0G

>>64566097I recently bought pic rel. Really nice. But looking through monocular for a long time makes your eye tired.

>>64570269Did you get the version with or without the reticle?
>>64568579I doing think I've ever seen a magnified NV monocular. Are you making shit up?
