    Instinct® 2X Solar - Tactical Edition AB Unlock Fee

    I figured it might. The issue with the watch pulling the environmentals is that getting an accurate ambient temp reading from a watch has always involved having to take it off for a while as your body temp skews the reading, at least in my experience.

    Sig Kilo 3000 vs Vortex Fury 5000 AB

    I've got Sig K3000 and Vortex Fury 5000AB. I use the Vortex all the time now, haven't used the Sigs in a long while. I'll have to compare the glass side by side to see if I actually prefer one to the other but for my eyes, they both work. Not "alpha" glass but plenty good for my uses (hunting...

    Spotters Bullet trace, how far can you see it?

    You can see trace out as far as the bullet can go although oftentimes what limits you is the backdrop you're shooting towards. At my long range spot, it's no problem to watch my buddy's trace (with my spotter setup behind him) out to my 940yd target. The next closest one, however, is at 1500yds...

    223 Tac Division Build

    25gr of Varget or 23.6gr of 8208 with 75 ELDMs (or 75 BTHPs for practice) at 1.955" BTO has given me 2900+ fps in 3 or so 26" 7tw .223 barrels now with no issues. Feed great from MDT poly or metal mags.

    Razor LHT vs. Mark5HD for hunting

    I have a 4.5-22 on my hunting rifle and quite like it. Good glass, great reticle, illum makes it usable on low mag. The turrets aren't great but do their job, it tracks well, put a throw lever on the mag ring as well. No experience with the 3.6-18 but tons on the 5-25s (which are nice scopes)...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    I'd double check to be sure, it'll be pretty close. I'm getting an ACC Premier chopped down a bit to go with this setup: Rem 700 with 18" Hawkhill heavy palma 6.5 Creed barrel done up by Insite Arms. My go to load (140gr ELDM with 42.0gr H4350 in Hornady case at 2.200" BTO) is moving 2670fps...

    223/for distance

    Yeah, 600 and in, they're great, I find. It's nice to have a common load between my .223 trainer barrel and my carbine (for longer range stuff) as well. You can squeeze more performance outta them loaded long (which I used to do) but I'm lazy and like having common loads so now I load em to AR...

    223/for distance

    I'm currently on my 3rd .223 barrel on one of my rigs and they've all been 26" 7tw barrels. It's easy to get 2900fps+ using Varget or 8208 with the 75s and with the ELDMs, that gives you really good ballistic performance. If you're mostly shooting out to 300 yards, I'd just use the 75gr BTHPs as...

    Barrel contour and length for nrl hunter rifle.

    I went wth a 24" Sendero but a med palma woulda been the same weight. Rifle is a Rem 700 in an MDT HNT26. That barrel allows me to run in open-heavy with a Razor Gen 3 6-36 and a triple-pull Ckyepod or in light-open with a Razor LHT 4.5-22 and a lightweight double-pull Ckyepod. 24" lets you...

    Instinct® 2X Solar - Tactical Edition AB Unlock Fee

    So you can get an Instinct 2 Tactical and then download AB Synapse (to your phone) and enable AB Ultralite or Elite on your watch? Could you then just use your watch paired to your LRF (and not use your phone at all)? What would you use for environmentals? A Tempe?

    Precision Rifle Gear Tripod clamp for Kestrel?

    Put an OBI post on the back of your Kestrel and put a Grip On on the tripod leg. Works awesome.

    CKYE POD (HD) WORTH IT

    Kinda depends on what you want to use it for. When I asked Ckye about it, he said it was more intended for heavy ELR/50cals, if memory serves. I run Ckyepods on my .300NM (which is about a 21lbs gun), I swap em around depending on where I'm shooting but it normally sports a single-pull. I've...

    18in Spr Optics

    I've actually been comparing my Razor 1-10 to a PST 2-10 lately, specifically for use on an 18.5" .223. In my mind it's really about what you plan to use it for most. The 1-10 is a great optic for up close with the ability to stretch things out more or better ID a target. I never dial mine and...

    Need some scope direction in front of thermal clip on.

    Pretty much every scope clears with a 1.5" mount.

    Is the Krypton available stateside? Is there an adapter to mount it to an NV bridge yet?

    Rifle Scopes Any experience with the Razor LHT 4.5-22? Vs Burris HD 5-25

    I have the LHT 4.5-22 and will echo what everyone else on here has said so far: good glass, good reticle, turrets that don't feel great but that are usable and track and a less than ideal illum switch but otherwise good illum. I don't know that there is anything else out there at it's weight...

    preferred AICS mag pouches?

    I've got a few different mag pouches that work well: the adjustable AG ones, a few from Triad but I just use Tacos these days. They fit AICS great but I can also run AR and AR10/M14 mags if I want/need to.

    0 or 20 MOA mount for LPVO>

    Especially with a Gen 3 Razor 1-10. I never take off the turret caps (other than to zero). Just holdover for everything.
