Baush & Lomb or Nikon Spotting Scope?

[kyarcher]

Well I wasn't very clear in my last thread " Burris Landmark or Signature".
I was trying to get ones opinion on spotting scopes. Anyway I have pretty much eliminated Burris and now thinking of either the Baush and Lomb 20x60 70mm or the Nikon Earth and Sky 20x60 80mm. They both are pretty much in the same price range but with the Nikon you get a tripod.
Any thoughts on these two brands and models?

Here's a thread where this exact topic took place. I'd go for the B&L Elite.

Are you sure you want an 80mm objective? What type of hunting are you using it for? Backpacking?
