    Sig Kilo 5K vs Leica CRF-PRO

    I have AB quantum on my IPhone, but if I don’t have service no atmospherics, if the phone is to hot turns off to cold battery dies unexpectedly. I don’t want to be married to the 10x42. It will be for hunting so AB lite should be just fine. Kestrel has the Father’s Day promotion now that’s...

    Sig Kilo 5K vs Leica CRF-PRO

    Looking at these two rangefinders don’t have a kestrel and don’t trust the reliability of a constant blue tooth link to my phone so I’ll be using the internal solver. Looks like Leica has a compass and the wind can be adjusted in the unit itself. Does anyone have any input or recommendations...

    Rifle Scopes 2x-3x minimum mag western hunting scope

    I like everything about them but the weight and price is probably the highest out of all the options

    Rifle Scopes 2x-3x minimum mag western hunting scope

    Looking for a FFP MIL scope for hunting out west with a minimum magnification of 2x-3x and around 15x on the high end for practice at the range and longer shots. I’ve looked at the NX8 and Burris XTRs. Vortex has a bunch of options not sure which ones are worth it. I’m looking to stay around...

    20” 6.5 PRC vs 24” 6.5 CM

    I appreciate all the replies. I liked the idea of the PRC in a smilies size as a CM because when hunting things rarely go as planned for me so a little extra help ballistically maybe nice without bumping up to a magnum.

    20” 6.5 PRC vs 24” 6.5 CM

    Are there R700 clone barreled actions with a 22-24” barrels for around the price of a new Bergara or Tikka? The aftermarket stock options for the Tikka is what’s holding me back on them. If anyone has suggestions I’m open to here them

    20” 6.5 PRC vs 24” 6.5 CM

    Suppressors are a no go for me. The reason I say 20” PRC is Bergara is saying they are going to offer premier barreled actions and for the 6.5 PRC it’s 20” or 26” or a carbon barrel that I believe is 24” but that comes with a price that may put me near a custom barreled action.

    20” 6.5 PRC vs 24” 6.5 CM

    Sounds like it’s not worth it to go that short. Rules out the barreled actions from Bergara.

    20” 6.5 PRC vs 24” 6.5 CM

    I should have also asked if the wind drift would be noticeable or would it be to close to tell from a hunters perspective

    20” 6.5 PRC vs 24” 6.5 CM

    I’m looking at Tikkas and Bergera arreled actions for a new elk/mule deer gun and was wondering if the velocity loss from a 20” PRC compared to a 24” creed would negate the benefits of the PRC. I don’t reload and will probably be using Hornady or Federal factory offerings in both. I have an...

    Rangefinder recommendation with pairing?

    I will most likely end up getting a Kestrel 5700x of Elite AB for all environmentals and date because I do not want to have to rely on my IPhone and service, so I’m trying to make the pain a little bit less by finding something a little easier on the wallet. I do like the idea of solver in the...

    Rangefinder recommendation with pairing?

    Very valid points actually, thank you. So perhaps a basic rangefinder and a Kestrel with the range card feature would be best to eliminate any technological issues afield?

    Rangefinder recommendation with pairing?

    I need to upgrade from my Sig Kilo 850 to something that can get accurate ranges on game in poor weather conditions out to probably 1000 yards. At some point I plan on getting some type of weather meter to pair with AB on my phone. Is there a range finder with just Bluetooth to phone or...

    Gunsmithing Checking rail alignment

    I have a Savage LA flat back rifle with EGW rail, Badger Rings, and Burris Veracity scope. After zeroing there is about 3/4 MOA of right windage left. To me after checking torque and looking at everything it appears the rail mounting holes are drilled slightly off to the right. Is there a way...
