A compact binocular, they fit easily into my hunting pack and on a shooting range table while I was zeroing in firearms and practicing. At just 20.1 ounces, the binos are light enough for long-term glassing, too.<\/p>\n<p>At the shooting range, the Droptines easily picked out bullet holes in my paper targets at a hundred yards. And I wasn&#8217;t shooting rifles chambered in 45-70 Govt., either. Most of my shooting was with a 22 Nosler handgun, and those tiny holes still showed up clearly.<\/p>\n<p>In my South Texas hunting stands, the binoculars did a really nice job of separating out various colors across the landscape. They helped me spot deer near and far in large part because the binos made the brown-gray coats of the deer stand out so obviously from the surrounding vegetation. More importantly, I was able to differentiate varying shades of brown at distance, too, and could tell when the brown was dead mesquite, an open area of dry ground, or a deer. Edges were sharply delineated, too.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_100704\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-burris-droptine-binoculars\" title=\"Gear Review:\u00a0Burris Droptine 10x42mm Binoculars\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-100704\" class=\"wp-image-100704 size-large\" title=\"Gear Review:\u00a0Burris Droptine 10x42mm Binoculars\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Gear Review:\u00a0Burris Droptine 10x42mm Binoculars\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo2-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo2-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-100704\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Droptine 10&#215;42\u2019s provided to be effective in the hunting blind or at the shooting range.<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">Now, there was a distance limitation which, as noted, was about <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/the-400-yard-deer-hunter-summer-prep-required\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-burris-droptine-binoculars\" title=\"Gear Review:\u00a0Burris Droptine 10x42mm Binoculars\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1183\">400 yards<\/a>.

The XPR Bolt-Action \u2013 Full Review.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Given this, I wouldn\u2019t recommend the Droptines for a hunt in the Western States where the distances can be so vast. Of course, millions of people hunt east of the Mississippi, in places thick with trees and ground cover and they rarely need to (or even can) see beyond 400-yards. The Droptines will shine in these hunting, scouting and recreational shooting conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">I could see right up until dark with my Droptines, and actually several minutes past dark. Pre-dawn in my various hunting stands, the Droptine let me figure out the surrounding landscape before shooting light.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A raised, weave-like texture on the binocular housing was very tactile and provided a superior grip, even when my hands were wet and dirty.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_100703\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo3.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-burris-droptine-binoculars\" title=\"Gear Review:\u00a0Burris Droptine 10x42mm Binoculars\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-100703\" class=\"wp-image-100703 size-large\" title=\"Gear Review:\u00a0Burris Droptine 10x42mm Binoculars\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Gear Review:\u00a0Burris Droptine 10x42mm Binoculars\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo3-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo3-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Photo3.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-100703\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A raised, weave-like texture on the Droptines provided a no-slip grip.<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">I found the center focus wheel a little stiff and it didn&#8217;t loosen up despite all the use I gave the binoculars. That&#8217;s a small thing. Yet, especially when you must do a one-handed glassing for whatever reason, a smooth-operating focus wheel knob is a real help.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">On the plus side, the binocular end caps actually stayed on. Yes, even when pulling the Droptines out of my backpack.
