Those 12's are sweet glasses! Someone is going to score!
 
I say go with 15x and 12x! Lol

I would be very interested if I didn't already have a pair of 12x.
 
Don’t do it. If you go to 15’s and you’ll start carrying two pairs to have a lighter one on your chest and the heavier ones in your pack it’s a viscous cycle then you’ll be sick of carrying two pairs and youll buy some 12’s and be back where you started. 12’s with a decent spotter when you need it is the best set up.
 
12x is pretty good, but there is such a gap between 12x and 25x with my ATX. There is a gap that I struggle to glass well.

Additionally my high country mule deer hunt last year 15x was mandatory and I didn’t have it

Tried carrying 12's for all round for awhile when my wife bought me some Leicas, too big and heavy to hang around my neck and without a tripod and too shaky. Went to Leica 10's around the neck after Leica 8's for awhile for neck wear. Now it's Swaor 15's in the pack with outdoorsmans tripod when I'm just helping I also carry a Swaro spotter 20- 65 and what I need for the day to keep up. My Leica 10's have a range finder which gets rid of another piece of gear. So many options just gotta find what works for you....

Sometimes..just depends on the fee
Do you kick everyone else out of the truck to get it steady?
Just depends on who's buyin...sometimes it's a tsunami for sure .lots of movement ..and fever going on..
 
Nice man !

I’m in the market for either the 12x NL’s or 15x’s

I don’t want to make the wrong choice lol
