Range finding binos

I have a pair of Leica Geovid Pro 10x32’s. When you pair them with the Leica ballistics app, it makes for an excellent set of lightweight, range finding binos that are easy to carry, especially with the Rick Young bino harness. I have taken them to South Africa, hunted elk, aoudad, and whitetail deer in Texas and they have functioned flawlessly.
 
Your check book tolerance dictates, Swaro, Leica, Zeiss, are the big names. Vortex and Leupold and others, it's a bit in the eye of the beholder. I bought the Leica Geovid B because I like how they feel in my hands, the balance, and durable as heck (though they have been back to Leica to recalibrate the range finding) I like them and I couldn't afford Swaro at the time.
 
I have the Swaro EL Range 10x32. The glass is great. However they are my only experience in range finding binos. They may be fantastic or not so great since I have no comparison.
 
Swaros. Cry once, then get decades of use out of them.
 
Do you actually use binos or do you want a range finder with added binos ? If you are into bird watching or spend a lot of time glassing during your US hunting then look at Leica or Swarovski. If you need a range finder and to check out a trophy or identify which buffalo then any reasonable binos will work (Leupold or Vortex. If you want ' The Look' then Swarovski
 
I had my Swarovski's for 15 years or so. Top of line glass. If you have the opportunity, take each out at dusk or dawn and see which one's you like.
 
What are the best. I have zero experience here.
I recommend this device. Refined glass with 150 years of experience. German electronics of the highest possible quality. Resistant to everything we hunters can throw at it. Of course, the price is a bit hot, but it's definitely worth it

I use the Meopta range finding binos. Nice clear glass. A bit of a sleeper, I would say.
