I also have a Celestron celestial scope ... I've used it to spot game at long distances (2000-2500 yds) in the early morning (when there isn't any mirage to contend with) ... it works, but mine requires too much gear to be truly portable. I have no experience with their "spotting scope" style units. I do NOT think that the Celestron that was linked to above is overkill at all ... it may be nicer than what most will have, but 80mm is what I now consider to be my personal minimum diameter for a spotting scope objective.
