I ended up buying the Burris 15-45x60 Landmark scope about a year ago. It's very clear at any zoom ranges, focuses well, and has great eye relief. It also includes the Burris tripod which I love. It's a little short leg tripod which uses great sets and two knobs for adjustments so you can really fine tune it, very easy to tune it exactly where you want. There are certainly more expensive spotting scopes out there but for $157 new it was a darn good deal.

Stay away from the cheap spotting scopes. Usually they have poor eye relief and horrible glass. My dad has a Bushnell which cost him about $110, extremely unclear and has literally no eye relief. I have to touch my eyelids to the eyepiece even when using the lowest zoom (20x I think).
