I'm working on planning a hunt to WY for pronghorn, first one ever, and wonder if I really need a spotting scope. A few questions come to mind.
1. What will a spotting scope do that a 10x50 bino will not?
2. Is there a good site to explain the difference in spotting scopes, like what all those numbers mean for magnification?
3. Will a good rifle scope, 3x9 I guess, be enough?
4. 65 vs 80? What is the difference? How much further will an 80 reach out vs the 65?
Oh the questions......
Anyone got some advice for me?
P.S. spending limit as well...I don't have Swaro money. Lets say $450.
