    Genesis Ballistics Solutions--Android Now Available!!

    I make drop cards for my rifles/loads at various DAs and Velcro them to my rifle for hunting and quick reference. Being able to turn off the fancy crap like arodynamic jump would be nice as I don't want to have to worry about my drop card having a 3 o'clock jump built in and I actually have a 9...

    Range Report .30-06 Terminal Ascent 175gr

    I have a couple of range sessions with this factory loaded ammo. It shot right around a minute at 100yds and 200yds on paper. Not quite as well as I had hoped, but for factory ammo for hunting it will work. Average velocity was 2729 out of a 22" proof SD of 13. However I stopped being able to...

    Thank you to Doug @ Cameralandny

    Just wanted to say that Doug is the man. He just helped me get service for a set of binos that I didn't even buy from him. I work overseas so didn't get a chance to open the box until I was outside of the other vendor's return policy. Doug got me in touch with a company rep at Leica who's...

    Optics USO B25 5-25 (Price Drop)

    I still have it, I just got back stateside a couple days ago and am self quarantining. Both scopes are still available, it would just take me a while to get them shipped. ETA: my internet access is a bit spotty so if I don't get back to you it's not because I'm ignoring you.

    Night Vision Who has run a 1-8, 2-10 scope behind a Simrad?

    I have no personal experience with a simrad or any other clip-on with a lpvo. I do have some time with a pvs30 and a pm2. I'm pretty certain you will not gain any FOV if you're already maximizing it at 5x with your current optic. You would further demagnify, but you're essentially zooming out...

    Understanding G1 and G7 Ballistic Coefficients

    Doc, in your image you plotted the G1 and the G7 bc on the same graph. So since the G1 bc is a larger number to begin with (roughly 2x the g7) the same percentage deviation is going to look like 2x as much as the g7 deviation on your graph.

    Kifaru pack fans? Anyone with a scabbard setup?

    https://www.extremestore.us/kifaru-long-range-hunter-scabbard-with-lid/ I have no experience with this product. I do have experience with a Kifaru fulcrum on their 24" frame. Phenomenal pack that works well as a daypack or as a monster for long trips. I have to say I really like their standard...

    Insite Arms Heathen Lite

    I've seen the aluminum version of the Heathen mentioned on forums. I've got a hunting rifle that I think would be a great candidate for the .885 sized Heathen Lite. I haven't seen them for sale anywhere and I haven't gotten a reply to my emails from Insite. Their website now displays...

    Range Report 95 grain 6.5 Creedmoor factory ammo

    I didn't have very good luck with the Hornady loading. It grouped really well with the magnetospeed attached, but around 1.5 - 2 moa without. The first time I've seen the magnetospeed affect group size instead of shifting POI. Averaged right at 3150 fps from an 18" tube. I did kill my elk with...
