    Rh25 vs nox 35

    I've had both. The Rh25 for 10 months, and sold it, I've had the Nox 35 since they were released, and have a 2nd one. My take : the Rh25 is nice, can be used with a clipon up to 3x. The menu is crazy complicated compared to the Nox. Mounting it as a stand alone thermal is hard and not really...

    22 Creedmoor light bullet twist

    I'm pretty sure it's the .120 FB..60 vmaxes are long enough to work well. As far as the powder charge, I think I was 36 grains...but I worked up until I saw my speed level off and watched my brass real close. I usually take 5 rounds and keep loading them till the printer pockets loosen and...

    22 Creedmoor light bullet twist

    I went 1-11 or 1-10 and it's a hammer with 60s at 3700fps. To do it again. A 1-9 would be about perfect in my experience.

    Night Vision Clip-on decision: Voodoo S or M, or something else?

    You'll want to verify, but I'm pretty sure that it is 16650s. It is that way with mine at least. So when I'm running both, I carry one battery of each. I do wish the voodoo had a battery indicator that told me when the battery was getting low. But for the most part the Knox and the voodoo have...

    $6000 budget, Which clip on are you picking

    iRay Rh25 is in the budget, they make a clipon too that's capable of higher magnification. Bering too...I think for real good clipons, you are looking to spend more than double for something that's maybe smaller, lighter, better image. Very general overview and others can get more specific...

    Night Vision Clip-on decision: Voodoo S or M, or something else?

    I love my S (thanks Horta)! I love the versatility of using a day scope and sighting in easily then throwing it on. My Nvision Nox 35 gives nearly the same image but it dedicated thermal. I'm waiting on the Nvision clipon I've heard hinted but I'm sure that's a SHOT release. For my shooting...

    22 creedmoor vs 22gt

    My 25" barrel 22 creed was running 3900fps with 60s, but I made it 180 rounds on prairie dogs before I was having bullets fragment after leaving the barrel. I went all carbon barrels and the lightest chassis and stocks available for hunting. I have heavier bullets, but for now, 60 vmaxes are...

    22 creedmoor vs 22gt

    I bought the reamer from GA, I think it was the .120? At the time it was the only reamer they carried

    22 creedmoor vs 22gt

    I have/had both 22 creed in 17" barrel pushing 60 vmaxes hard I got 3700fps and good accuracy. 22 GT with 18" barrels, I'm getting 3500fps with the same bullet. My accuracy is almost unbelievable (10twist barrels). I'm also using 3-4 grains less powder. Looking back, for the varmint...

    Hunting knives

    I went deep into knives over the past few years, I bought a David Winston skinner and was amazed at how well it did on 2 deer, and then bought a Gene Ingram knife...then bought 3 more as I found a refined smaller blade that's well made is real capable (I skinned, quartered 5 deer before I hit...

    Any love for x-caliber barrels?

    I have 2 6mm blanks that I chambered. They are shooting real good

    Night Vision Nvision x50 vs Nox 35 magnification difference

    I've had both, the narrow field of view made it hard in close quarters, keeping my shots to 300yds or less, the nox35 is stellar and why I now have 2 of them. I wish they had onboard recording, but I forget most time to hit record so moot point most of the time. Plus I can actually do better...

    22-250 Barrel Chop. Length vs noise/muzzle flip?

    Not much in the 18-20", but it did seem less violent all around than the 16" barrel. Granted, I use H4895 with the 60 vmaxes and so my speeds are in the 3600-3700 fps

    22-250 Barrel Chop. Length vs noise/muzzle flip?

    My best all around barrel length with the 22 creed was 17-18", 16s were too short and slower noticably, the 20s were slightly faster than my 18, but with a can, it felt like a broom handle.

    Thoughts on this inside my bore?

    Yeah, I've seen worse. It might pickup junk over time, but I wouldn't worry. It does look like an edge of a cleaning rod or brush scratched it?
