    Vectronix X Range Enhancers Availability?

    Damn, I know a couple guys that ordered around that time frame and got theirs in October. 12x DMR. Mine were the 10x DMR

    Thermal Coyote hunting round

    I dumped a few this weekend with my 6 MAX. I was running 70 smk's at 3200 fps. Recoil is the same as my .223 rifles. Factory ammo can be bought for $1.50 a round right now but is much cheaper if you reload. It's just a barrel swap and cheap 350 legend mags. It uses the .223 bolt. 6 ARC would...

    Vectronix X Range Enhancers Availability?

    A bunch of orders already went out for those that ordered early. I've had mine since late September. There is a hold up on all of the range enhancers. They were said to be shipping this month a while back. The 8x version is in stock, I'm guessing there was a large pre-order of the 12x DMR...

    Bipod: Thunderbeast vs CAL

    It's not that simple. The TBAC and the Harris have 2 similar features. -the spring loaded legs -deploying them without having to push a button Other than that, the TBAC is far superior. It has those two features of the harris, but the rest it shares with the Atlas. Harris is made from stamped...

    Bipod: Thunderbeast vs CAL

    I have both and I like both of them. My only gripe about the TBAC is the spring loaded legs. They're quick and easy to extend, but putting them back in isn't nearly as fast and easy as the CAL.

    6mm ARC vs 6mm Max

    Perhaps I should have picked a better word, lol. I haven't had the best luck reliably running light bullets with the ARC, especially without a can on. The max runs everything great with the same setup and great accuracy. So I'd argue that the max is the cartridge that does both things well and...

    6mm ARC vs 6mm Max

    Having both, if your goal is to try to make a PRS rifle out of an ar-15, I'd go 6 ARC. It was built for the heavier bullets. It's accurate and slow. The 6 max is more diverse. It really shines with the lighter bullets in short barrel rifles and the 90 grain in standard length barrels. It can...

    X - Vectronix Shooting Solutions

    Just realized I had an alkaline battery in the kestrel. Alkaline really doesn't like cold weather. I'll try a lithium.

    X - Vectronix Shooting Solutions

    Yep. Even took a video, but i guess I'd have to upload it to YouTube or something before I can post on here. Included some screen shots though. Kestrel and binos in the freezer for over an hour. Double checked freezer temp with thermoworks air probes. Kestrel with a new battery doesn't even...

    No, it's the battery for sure. Or at least the battery is what fails first. My binos worked down to -5° F (lowest I've tested) with a warm battery. Cold battery into warm binos, they won't work. The only 18650 I've tested is a rechargeable streamlight. I can leave it installed in the binos in...

    I was worried about this a little too, But I haven't had a problem with that yet and I mostly hunt with mine. I actually prefer it since the lit reticle on my last binos would wash out the whole background in low light. It would be cool if it was an option though.

    No, that won't be an option with these

    X - Vectronix Shooting Solutions

    The minimum operating temperature the've published is -20c/ -5f. I think that may just be the range of the temperature sensor. When I take the vectors down to -5 in my freezer, they try to wake up but quickly die. Pop in a warm 123a battery and they work. If I put a battery alone in the freezer...

    Spotters Vortex Fury HD 5000 questions… Also AB model $999 currently from Scheels

    You'll enjoy the Fury's, especially for that price. I ran a pair of the AB's from when they came out until this year when I upgraded to the Vectors. I racked up several kills from 300-900 yards using them as a stand alone laser/solver. The glass is decent, I believe they use the viper line. I...

    Hunting & Fishing DIY Walk in Deer Cooler

    My condenser went out on an old 7x7x8 box from the 40's or 50's. Metal sheet box with shit fiberglass insulation and wood framing. Instead of dumping $3k on a new unit for that old box, we decided to try the coolbot and a window unit. Keeps it from the low 30's to the high 30's depending on...

    Tikka action build

    Yes, I've built many this way. I just buy a tikka lite and you're getting a good action and trigger for about $650. If you don't care about the look, you can put a tikka nut barrel (even though you can use a prefit) from Crown Ridge and have a tack driver barreled action for a little over a...

    I noticed it right off the bat with mine, but it doesn't bother me one bit. You can almost think of it like taking up the slack on a 2 stage trigger. For long range, you'll rarely hit the focus knob since the DOF is so forgiving on these unless you're pulling focus to see mirage. I've also been...

    No, just one range card at a time.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Two more P320s discharge in Holster.

    You can also see the pistol and magazine laying on the ground when he says "here's the casing". So he had already taken it out. The way the news edited the footage is kinda backwards.
