Sold Kowa 554 with case

[Clay Thompson]

Selling my Kowa 554 with the stay-on neoprene case. Lightly used for one spring bear season and some summer scouting. Still have original box and documentation. Also, I have a phone skope adapter I will throw in. I will upload photos later.

Only selling because I jumped up to the 774 as it fits my hunting style better.

Asking $1525 for the combo.

My new 774 is finally on the way, price drop to $1450. Let's get this thing a new home for rifle seasons.

Price drop to $1400. I don't feel like I am way off on the price for this thing, but feel free to call me out if you think otherwise.

How do you like the glass of the 774 vs 554?

Difficult for me to make a comparison as the objective size is way different, so that makes up for any quality lost from their pure fluorite optics that can be found in the 55mm spotters. Obviously, the 88mm would have been the best of both worlds, but I couldn't justify the extra cost at this time. Backwoods Pursuits has extensive reviews on the Kowa optics, and they know their shit. Here is a link to one of their many reviews:

Hope it helps!

Great scope. This is best scope you can get when size and weight matter.
