I just got a Bushnell Legend Ultra HD 10x42 Roof Prism Binocular that I am quite happy with. They are very sharp and frankly I can see more with these than a more powerful sporting scope.

I got the for about $150 on sale at Amazon. Right now they are closer to $200.

Yeah we sell Vortex at the gun shop and for the quality of glass at that price is ridiculous......plus their warranty is 2nd to none.
You can run over them with your truck, send them what's left and they replace it.
