Nice purchase. I’m in the market for a new spotter and that Leupold was one of the three I narrowed it down to (leaning toward the Leupold).

Vortex and Hawke both have offerings in the same class. In fact, the chassis for those two and Leupold are exactly identical. I expect the guts aren't terribly different, either. The Vortex is made in the P.I., the Hawke in the PRC.

Daaaaamn...should be able to see into the future with that.
Use a quality tripod, at distances over 500 yards having a steady (no wobble) platform is critical.

I have no idea the shipping cost from here to Costa Rica. I can do my research on shipping and get back with you later today.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
