Wanting to look through a Kowa 660 model

BillyBoB · May 2, 2019

I've been looking to upgrade my spotter to the Kowa TSN-664m Prominar XD scope with a 20x60 lense.
But I'd like to look through one before deciding. Are there any retail shops in northern Utah who sell them so I can take a look?

Did you get a chance to look through one? I was wondering what your thoughts were. I'm looking at getting s spotter and can't really decide which one.

I have a 663M angled and use a 30x wide eyepiece, 664M is straight. The crispness, clarity and contrast is comparable to my SLC's, the image is superb. I haven't looked thru it with a 20x60 eyepiece so can't comment on that.

I also have heard good things from several people and all the reviews I read online comparison to SLC was similar

I currently use a straight but am willing to go to the angle. It may take a minute to get use to the angle spotter
I am specifically looking at the 20x60 zoom eye piece
