The Bushnell R7 ED 8×42 Binoculars in Green (brand part no. R7-842) balance a wide field of view with a versatile 42mm objective, making them an easy everyday choice for hunters and shooters who move around more than they stay put. The lower 8x magnification is easier to hold steady by hand than higher-power options, which helps when tracking moving game or scanning a wide field quickly. ED glass reduces chromatic aberration for sharp, high-contrast images, and fully multi-coated lenses make the most of available light at dawn and dusk. A sealed, rubber-armored roof-prism body stays waterproof and fogproof in changing weather.
