I am just starting to do some target shooting and am in the market for a spotting scope for bench use. I am wondering about how well terrestrial telescopes would perform in this application.
I am thinking along the lines of a unit such as a Celestron C90 or a similar Meade. How would they compare to a quality spotting scope such as a 60mm or 77mm Kowa or the like?
I've read some regarding various spotters, brand comparos and model differences, but never heard anyone compare them to a decent compact spotting "telescope" like a Cassegrain-style Celestron.
Obviously I don't much experience with either. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
