I'm currently researching spotting scopes for use in the sand box. Mostly I'm just asking opinions. So this seems like a good place to ask.
What would you take with you to the sand box that would get the job done and stand up to the environment? A ranging reticle would be nice, too. I know Leupold makes spotters with ranging reticles, anybody else? Without spending a fortune, I'm leaning towards Kowa, but I have no idea how they would stand up in a military environment, and I don't know that they produce any spotters with reticles.
I'm just an old civilian shooter, so my experience is pretty much useless here. Comments appreciated.
