MAIN 10X42

From alpine slopes to desert floors to the whitetail woods, Covert Optics 8X42mms and 10X42mms are made to help hunters dissect the details of wild landscapes to uncover a prospective target animal, or accurately size up a cruising buck in the distance.

In mixed topography where spotting animals gets challenging, users will appreciate high-quality ED glass and a high-contrast BAK-4 lens system, which deliver color and clarity for picking apart tangled terrain. At dawn and dusk, the scratch-resistant Diamond Bright multicoating maximizes light transmission to reduce glare. Combined these attributes make long days behind glass less straining on the eyes of the dedicated hunter.

10X42mm Binoculars

The binoculars boast dependable aluminum housings underneath ergonomic rubber moldings, to deliver a setup that’s waterproof, fog-proof and shock-resistant. Despite the durable construction, these binoculars are compact and lightweight at just 24 ounces (10X42mm) and 23.5 ounces (8X42mm)—an easy carry to the treestand or in the backcountry where weight always counts.
