Match Pro ED 15x56 Binoculars - MRAD Reticle, ED Prime Glass, Multi-Coated Lenses for Long Range Spotting

So far I am very impressed with these. Very good glass even when compared to higher tier optics these are very good. I’ll be curious to do a side by side with some zeiss and Swarovski soon, I expect them to be better in particular low light situations but certainly not enough to justify 3 or more times the price. I’ll try to remember and update after side by side.

We love these binocs. They don’t steam up when we take them out side on our balcony to watch dolphins in the gulf. Easy to focus and sharp images are brought right up close!!! Reminds me of the binoculars i used on Navy ships!!!!

Highly recommend for PRS

I’m left eye dominant so these are a slight struggle for me. I wish there was an option to change the reticle to your dominant eye. These are great out to 1100yds on painted targets. Other than that frustration, these are 5 stars.

I sold use these binoculars for spotting at matches. The grid pattern for target size is great. The function is flawless.

First a confession – I’ve avoided Bushnell in the past. It’s always been Leopold scopes and Swarovski binocs. I’m a bit old school that way because it was hard to find great optics back in the day (yes, I’m old). But then comes a great opportunity to get these guys and I’ve been shopping around for high power binoculars. 15x is certainly up there and the big lens diameter (56) matches up to gather enough light to support the magnification. I’ve been aware that the quality of optics like these has been getting very good, but I had no idea how good Bushnell has gotten. These things are wonderful! Good glass. Solid construction. These are far from compact. I've seen bigger, but not often. I think it would be a good idea to get sticks (a bipod or tripod) for these to get the extra stability and to reduce the arm/shoulder fatigue. I tested these by scoping a mountain side that’s visible from my back yard. It’s a little too far for my 8x32 binoculars. With these, it was … interesting. Lots of stuff happening over there. I never knew. I had to stop when my arms/shoulders got too tired. I had no eye fatigue, just muscle fatigue. Cheap glass leads to eye fatigue. These binoculars have good glass. For shot calling, they’ll do the job, but my Kowa spotting scope does a better job. Soooo… not gonna change to binocs for spotting. I will take them to the range though. That way I can hog the spotting scope. Oh yeah - some of the controls were stiff at first and it seemed like the reticle wouldn't rotate to level. It does. Read the directions to figure out what to turn then turn it. It won’t break.

Pleasantly surprised, also impressed with these binoculars and how they feel in my hands. My go to binoculars for many years have always been my Vortex 10x50 Razor HD. For sighting at the range, I use a binocular pod mount attached to a tripod. While this always has worked well, it was a bit more time consuming because they do not have a MRAD reticle. While at the range I used the same mount set up on the Bushnell binoculars with a light duty tripod. Using the detailed instructions, you are able to level and focus the MRAD with ease to achieve the clarity needed while sighting at the range. All of the adjustments on these binoculars are firm and accurate allowing them to stay where you put them while in use. Another nice feature is the bridge lock, if you so choose to use it, keeping the focal in place while using them. You can use the bridge lock and a pod mount simultaneously if desired depending on the style of mount. The field of view @ 15x56 is plenty large and 100% in focus at most any range, allowing great versatility at most any reasonable distance. The optics also allow plenty of natural light in, providing little to no eye fatigue while using these Bushnell's for long periods of time. These will now be my preferred optics for the range and my Vortex around my neck for hikes and hunting. I'm giving these Bushnell Match Pro 15x56 Binoculars a 5-star rating for clarity, accuracy, large field of view, and versatility. These binoculars are heavy duty, and you feel this when you hold them. I also strongly recommend a binocular pod mount and a monopod if you plan on using them for spotting for an extended period of time. I would expect to get many years out of these and pass them down the line for many more.

I’ll start by saying wow these have crystal clear glass! Took these out to the 300’ range to help sighting in my low power optics and they did not disappoint. I could easily pick up my shots on target out to 300’ and even picking up .22LR at 100’. Now for the real-world drawbacks: in good conscience, I would never tell anyone to take these hunting unless you’re specifically stationary with little to no hike-in. These are just over 3lbs and feel like an anchor around your neck. In no way would I be attempting to carry these while on the move. To take that a step further, with the inability to adjust your magnification, these wouldn’t be ideal for hunting anything other than open areas with little to no vegetation and few trees. For the price tag of $700 these have a limited capacity for me other than spotting shots at the range, which they do very well. However, if I was looking for an optic that was just for range sighting, I would rather invest in a decent spotter’s scope where I'd at least be able to turn the magnification up and down as needed.
