fisher_hunt Report post Posted October 10, 2013 Anybody tried or use the Monarch 5 16x56? I'm looking for a tripod glass. First I was looking at the Vortex Kaibab's but then was almost set on getting the Vortex Viper Viper 15x50 because of their price and smaller size. I didn't think the Monarch's had a tripod glass in their line but found the Monarch 5's when browsing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle Eye Report post Posted October 10, 2013 I looked through them at bass pro and I would rather buy the vipers over those. Vipers are a lot clearer and you can't beat their warranty. If you have the money I would get the kaibabs. I myself went with the vipers for the cheaper price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
More D Report post Posted October 10, 2013 nikons have lots a lot of cred imho. they have too many lines now. it might make it better value etc by offering more options but to me it seems harder to know your getting your moneys worth. before you had prostaff, buckmasters, monarch, etc. More D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
