They have been at different shows. I don't think Sportmans carries them.

Make sure you look at the warranty as well, Nikon is probably the best,

has anyone ever used a barska spotting scope or have you ever looked through one. Their prices are great but are they good?

I just bought a Vortex Nomad 20-60 X 60 spotting scope and am extremely happy with it. It is light weight great glass and crisp and clear. I also bought the razor binos that Vortex makes. They were as good as my swarovski SLCs and 1/2 the price.

I highly recomend this year as you start looking into good optics, that you try out Vortex. You can see a list of dealers on their website.

Vortex offers a lifetime warranty. Great product for the price.

I had one person compare a set of Diamondbacks with his Zeiss, and he actually said the Vortex were brighter.

I would reccomend a Nikon or if youre willing to save up a little longer you can a leupold 12-40x60mm for 699.99 at sportsmans I paid $900 for the same spotter back in 2001
