Swarovski Spotting Scope Beautiful ATS 80 Eyepiece 20-60 & Nice Soft Case Used

Swarovski ATS 80 with 20-60 mag eyepiece. All lenses are in beautiful condition with minimal to no visible marks even under very close examination. Mechanics are perfect, focus/dials all run up & down smooth & solid. Finish on the housing has usual indications of being handled and one scuff where the power mag dial ring on the side of the eyepiece got a spot of abrasion one long afternoon trek on the way back to the wall tent from a hunt.

The unconditional guarantee is a valuable bonus, they even replaced worn & lost lens caps for me recently, which was appreciated. My last outing with it was for elk in the Wenaha of Oregon in November of 2015. Our outfitter switched back & forth for views of animals between looking through his Swarovski ATS 65mm and my 80mm. We were watching elk that were across the river, over on the north side of the canyon rims from the Big Hole, west of us in the head of Trapper Creek, about 7 miles away if I recall correctly.

Our outfitter crew judged some of the bulls we were watching as going well up into the 350 plus range using these Swarovski spotters. You could not even make out any animals at that range with any of the other binocs, rifle scopes or field glasses that all the other hunters brought out onto the ridge that snowy afternoon.

They did not believe there were any animals to be seen anywhere in the area, including the spots we were watching "way over there". Under their breath they indicated we were just making it up to irritate them... Until we offered to let them have a quick look through the Swarovskis. Without horses, you could not get to the base of the range where the bulls were and even if you walked in the many miles through the knee deep snow, you would be fortunate to survive a return trip, let alone bring a trophy rack out on your back. We began to plan our hunt up into the remote area ASAP where the bulls had holed up.

Packing as light as possible yet with enough to survive, we got our gear assembled, double checked & left at midnight for a couple hours of grinding drive to the jumping-off point. In the dark, we mounted horses to began the long pack trip ride into spike camp at the base of the range where the bulls were hanging out. My brother and I both took dandy 6x elk after more than enough effort climbing for hours upon hours during the hunt. The climbing is likely to last me from here on out for all the rest of my days afield.

If I believed in luck, I would say this truly is my lucky big game spotter, having enjoyed a lot of magnificent views with this Swarovski. It has the super close focus for examining small creatures just a few feet in front of you, all the way to checking out the moon after dark. No such thing as luck. In most situations, when it comes to a formula for success, IMHO, it's built on planning, training, practice, hard work & willingness to make the effort to go with the right equipment. Hardware without compromise that is designed for the challenge.
