    Spotters Spotting scope recommendations for ~$1500?

    Burris makes an MRAD reticle eyepiece that works in a gen 1 Razor 80mm spotting scope. That’s what I use.

    I turned a pvc spacer that allowed a 18500 rechargeable 3.7v battery to power my Mark VII. It works great.

    Optics "Liberty Optics and Snipers Hide, Always a Great Match"

    Honestly, if I need to genuinely hide anything from my bride of 31 years, I shouldn't be doing it. We both budget our "play money" (she flies a small plane).

    Optics "Liberty Optics and Snipers Hide, Always a Great Match"

    That happened to me too! She very proudly placed it in the middle of my desk. You could say that I have had to do a little extra gardening and yard work, lol. It's a good thing I did'nt get a hard copy of a receipt for a Mark 7 Revolution.

    Spotters Tripod recommendations?

    If I’m stationary, by far my favorite tripod for use with a spotting scope is a heavy Manfrotto with a video head. They are plentiful and cheap on Facebook market place. If I’m moving, I use my carbon fiber tripod.

    2022 Black Friday Sale Thread

    I got as far as as entering my cc info, then crash… no order. I’m still impressed that MDT does this.

    Cz457 vs T1x vs b14r

    Get a CZ 457 MTR. I own two Tikka T1X's, one with a Lothar Walthar barrel, and the other has a custom Shilen Match Select barrel. They shoot great but feeding is an issue that keeps me from loving them and I have tried every trick and mod that I know of to make them run. My CZ 457 MTR and the...

    Spotters Sig Customer Service

    No discount was offered. I did not expect one either, as my Kilo 2000 failed after the 5 years. They did mention that there was a lifetime warranty on the optics of the range finder. I am very glad for that as I use it daily as a 7x monocular lol. I replaced the rangefinder with a Vortex...

    Spotters Sig Customer Service

    My Sig Kilo 2000 display faded out and it was only on it's second battery with minimal use. I was just outside the 5 years, so I was out of luck. Somehow I missed the "5 years warranty on electronics" in the lifetime warranty fine print, which Sig pointed out when I called. Lesson learned. I...

    Bushnell XRS3

    I did use Koshkin's way of setting the diopter. That is how I knew something was wrong and prompted me to have Bushnell take a look at my first XRS3. I really appreciate the expertise and insight to the technical part of the optics world that Koshkin gives us.

    Bushnell XRS3

    I sent my XRS3 to Bushnell and It turns out it "would not focus properly". They promptly replaced it with a new one and total turn around time was 9 days. The sample I received has the glass I expected. Thumbs up Bushnell.

    Bushnell XRS3

    I really want to like my XRS3, but I don't. The glass on my model is not as good as the Vortex Viper PST 2's I have looked through. It is bad enough that I cannot see impacts on steel at 500-700 yards that I can clearly see with the two first gen Athlon Cronus's that I was using, and am now...

    Vudoo w/ Eley Ammo

    I wish my Vudoo 360 was melonited. My Cerakoted action seems to bind unless I use heavy grease. I have about 8000 rounds through it. Forget runnning Eley tenex in it, no bueno.

    Possible LRF Deal

    Sig only has a 5 year warranty on the electronics of the laser range finder. Mine Sig went down and it is just outside of the 5 years. Now I am shopping for a Vortex.

    South Bend 10 lathe

    I made a new belt out of a serpentine belt. Use it groove side down, feather the ends about an inch and glue the splice with super glue. Mine has held up for at least 10/years and counting.
