I don't have the binos, but I have a couple trophy scopes and a couple legend scopes. I think these two are some of the best for the money in their classes. Either would be good. I use the trophy for general short range work and the legend for long range work. The legend is as good as others I have had for way more money. If you just want a basic go with the trophy, but if you want a real good set for the money, plan to use them for low light work, and look through them quite a bit I would get the legends. You get a lot nicer lenses with more coatings.
