[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 1345688, member: 7123"] What's the budget? If you can crank it up to $500-$550, the Celestron Ultima ED Glass 22-66x100 looks pretty strong - very hard to get ED glass that cheap ordinarily. Most days I use 9x60 binoculars or just the rifle's scope at 25 and 50, and a Celstron C130 Mak reflector past that, but that's only to 200, not beyond, though I think it would do 300 and 400 quite easily, with a dirty bird/shoot n c target. Occasionally I'll use the Celestron C90 Mak, but at 150 and 200, it's definitely not as good as the C130 Mak. At 100, either work. These are good under-$300 budget choices, but they're not as durable as refractors, if say, you drop them. Thank you Mark - I'm glad to know that tidbit of information. [/QUOTE]
