Those are a little better than your basic bicocs and bushnell is a good brand he’ll like them that’s for sure. As for how far he’ll be able to see in them not really sure, at full magnification he should be able to see a good ways away. The bigger the number the further you’ll be able to see, like if they say 10×50mm which is what I believe they are you’ll see a ways away and see clear.
