Anyone have any first hand experience with these? Mainly wondering about clarity a d brightness of the glass. Rangefinder accuracy as well. Thanks.

They are decent rangefinder with $200 binocular “glass”- usable for most, but resolution is average to below average, color contrast isn’t very good, brightness isn’t great. Again, usable and you certainly can see animals with them, but side by side with even a Vortex Fury 5000 HD there is a noticeable difference once light starts fading.

The rangefinder is excellent.
The glass exceeds what my expectation was at the SALE price-point but is laughable at the “MSRP”. As with all things Bushnell you better hope you don’t get a lemon, which you might since it’s made in China.

With all the great options out there, just curious why the Bushnell?
May be able to come across a set for a very reasonable price. Is there something else you would recommend in that $700 range?

Thanks to the others for the replies How do they compare to the Forge line of binoculars?

I think you'd be better served at that price point to look for a used Sig Sauer BDX 3000
