    Rifle Scopes NF ATACR 7-35 does this sound right?

    It seems that I have read on one or two threads that the 7-35 has it's resolution boosted over the 5-25. If this is true, that would be a good reason for me to go for the 7-35.

    Movie Theater Anyone Read A Good NON-Fiction Book Lately?

    Also started (sometimes read several books concurrently, must be ADHD here), Roping Lions in the Grand Canyon by Zane Grey. It's about Buffalo Jones who roped a lot of animals, all over including Africa. For such an old book, it is interesting and well written.

    Kowa Genesis 33 Prominar 8x33 vs Swarovski 8x32 EL binoculars

    Swarovski's have a field flattener lens which the Kowa's do not,and the view is sharp to nearly the edge of the barrels. The Kowa is like Zeiss Fl's and Leica Ultravid HD's in that the view from the center to 80 -85% of the total view is in sharp focus. The focus then degrades on the outer...

    Rifle Scopes Kahles... new scopes?

    I would like a K4-16i, in 50 mm. I like the glass in my K624i, but, I wouldn't mind if Kahles amped up the contrast a little more.

    Rifle Scopes Tangent Theta 3-15M review

    If I had a nice new rifle sans a scope, I would go for a TT or S&B in a heart beat for the rifle. Right now I am just getting used to a new Minox ZP-5 on a 300 WM. Not sure if the Minox is as good as Phillips IOR, but I sure like it a lot. Thanks CS Tac for your excellent service! I'm sure...

    Help me pick some Bino's please

    One major consideration for binoculars (other than than lack of CA, resolution and contrast) is the field of view. Some binoculars are engineered for narrow fields of view. The field of view is a consideration for any binoculars that I would be thinking of buying.

    Annealing Made Perfect

    Had mine for a month now. Other than hand feeding every piece and pressing the start button for every piece I really like it. I think it takes the guesswork out of tuning a flame annealer to the proper temperature. I also did not like having the open flame for the other annealing systems.
