Fargazer:
How does that Pentax PF80 do for spotting holes at 300yds with the Pentax zoom eyepiece? Are seeing conditions/mirage the limiting factors?
Have you tried it with the Pentax fixed XW or XF eyepieces?
I'm considering saving for one to use for spotting at the range, digiscoping and some basic terrestrial and astronomical viewing. It seems like a good "jack of all trades" scope.
