Default BUSHNEL 10X42 BINO'S?

I'am looking for a set of binos in the 8x42 or 10x42 range, what do you guys think of the bushnel 10x42? I was looking at the Burris 8x42 in the store but it is hard to tell inside. Is the 10 power to much to hold steady in a tree stand?

I had originally purchased some 12x20 compacts. In the areas I set up to hunt, longest viewing distance is 50 yds, 12x20way to much power for that range.

I recenlty began using Bushnell 8x42, much better field of viewthan the 12x20,perfectfor the areas I hunt.

PM davidmil or Greg/MO. These guys know more about optics than they'll admit to.

Tell them where you're hunting.

I have a pair of the Bushnell Legend 10x42's and I love them. They are compact and are very clear. I tested them next to some binos that cost 2-3 times as much and actually thought they were better. Unfortunately, they don't make the one's that I have anymore. They were a great value at $109. I'm sure that other Bushnell binos are just as good if not better now.
