    Night Vision Pulsar Trail 1.6-12.8x42 LRF XP50 ?

    For the money, Trail XP50 isn't too bad. I use MKIII 60mm along with Radius and my hunting partner uses XP38 LRF. The trail line doesn't compare at all for image quality, but I have watched him shoot coyotes past 200 yards. The main thing I'd like to convey is that there is no depth...

    LNIB Vectronix Terrapin FDE

    There is no longer a "lack of service available" for these products. Vectronix was bought by a German company and they are standing behind all vectronix products.

    Rifle Scopes Alpha Scope Review: Zero Compromise, Tangent Theta, Schmidt

    @Dthomas3523 Because it's a locking turret, there are splines inside. If you aren't careful to aline the splines correctly they can be off just a bit. I may be wrong, but I think this could be where some people are getting a slight mis-alinement. The set screws can be very lightly tightened...

    Rifle Scopes Alpha Scope Review: Zero Compromise, Tangent Theta, Schmidt

    Everybody is concerned with the elevation turret lining up....understandably. However, I'm wondering if it might just be a result of the zero stop not being set correctly. I have already shot a match with the ZCO and it ran flawlessly. I was careful with setting the zero-stop and don't have...

    Night Vision reap ir vs xp50

    I had a IR Hunter MK II (similar internals to Reap IR) and a Pulsar XD38A. The difference in "picture" quality between the two is miles apart. The original price was $2K apart. When looking thru the Pulsar, it seems like it should cost less than $1K. NOTE: "had" IR Hunter MK II because it has...

    Night Vision IR Defense MK III x 60

    Thanks for your help. I appreciate and respect your knowledge of nightvision/thermal. I have read nearly all of your posts over the years. In using the term "over" I didn't mean shooting over, I meant watching over. No shots will be taken in line with or near any cattle. I will look into...

    Night Vision IR Defense MK III x 60

    Hey Wig, thank you for all that info!! I am using my 223AI bolt gun (PRS Trainer) for day time coyote hunting over calving cows. Based on the size of the main field I need to be able to shoot at least 600 yards. My MKIII has always been primary on an AR-15. From what you are saying, I...

    Night Vision IR Defense MK III x 60

    Does anyone have any experience running the IR Defense MK III x 60 as a clip-on? I would like to try running it in front of my Kahles K624i on a 223AI because for what I'm doing I will need to be able to shoot at least 600 yards. I've run this scope on an AR-15 since 2014 (it started out as a...

    How do you carry a tripod with a pack?

    Not being a smart ass, but I just carry mine in my hand. Over time I figured for me this was the easiest way to transport it.

    300 Blackout 8" 208gr Amax Subsonic loads?

    I would recommend trying H4198 also. I haven't tried it in a gas gun, but it works well in a bolt gun.

    Help with AR15 Load

    I run 26gr of Varget and get awesome results. I haven't tried IMR 8208XBR, but guessing it might also be a great choice.

    Range Finder Help!

    I would recommend looking at the leica 1600. I have one that's a few years old (I think they have improved it since then) that works great!!! It has given me ranges almost to 2K yards. Out to a mile would be no problem.

    Where to buy Pig Saddle

    Put up the extra money and get the Hog Saddle. You might be disappointed with the Pig Saddle....there is a reason for the difference in price!

    Question for the experts, compensating a load for colder fall temps

    leadbullet is right. However, even "non temp sensitive powder" will have slightly different MV's with temp changes. As he said, just adjust your dope for the changes.

    308 win lapua palma brass

    I would recommend paying the $10-$12 for a decapping die. I decap before cleaning and never run dirty cases thru my dies. IMO you would prep the palma brass just the same as any other.

    Multiple rifles in one caliber

    I agree with what witchhunter said. I have die sets for each rifle.
