Has anyone seen/tried one of these scopes? They're ideally specced for what I want; just a bit dubious of the quality. Any feedback appreciated

Has anyone actually weighed one of these? The advertised weight of 26.3oz seems rather high for the size of the scope, is it actually correct?

As per title. Wanted in any condition.

Still doesn't exist. 2 or 3 to 12 or 15, x 40 ish or 50 Simple .1 mil tactical turrets. Decent travel Simple FFP mil-hash reticle (or a christmas tree since they're so popular these days) 30mm tube. Top quality. Side parallax adjust. Compact size. Light weight. The Bushnell LRHS was...

Film #50!! This time a friend and I went in search of a good winter Bull Tahr skin and head. Enjoy!

This is slightly different to US sheep hunting - not Bighorn or Marco Polo, but hunting for wild merino sheep on public land in New Zealand

What options are there? Show me your custom .223 rifles... looking at building something with an ~18" moderately heavy barrel and a M40 style stock & using AI mags, shooting 75gr ELD-M or similar.

I bought a Mark 6 3-18x44 with the M5C2 turrets and TMR reticle. Here's a short overview of the features of the scope, and an admittedly, obviously, poorly designed and executed tracking test that nonetheless was rather illuminating.

Went out for a hunt over the last week for the start of the red stag roar. Mixed success, a bit of rain. Not pictured: Panel Damage.

Took my wildly undersized inflatable out today on the local lake to catch some wildly undersized fish. Great success.

I keep seeing vaguely negative posts, what's the juice?

Does anyone have any idea who makes the lightest 34mm rings out there? I have these and they're very light (~90gm), wondering if there is anything comparable or lighter http://www.webshop.roedale.de/gx2/product_info.php?info=p1478_2-piece-matching-ring-sets-34mm.html

I went for a walk and culled a few feral goats with my 13.5" SBR AR15. Here's a film:

Not long range, particularly... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEKs4iEwN1k

I went for a walk this evening between rain showers, and shot some "long range" rabbits with my custom Savage MkII .22LR - "long range" in this case being between 60 and 150 metres. Film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bs0o5zTEP8E

I wanted a more accurate .22 than my old 10/22, so I bought a used Savage MkII FS, then it sat in my safe un-used for 2 years because I couldn't get a decent stock for it - Boyds' wouldn't export to NZ. Since thegunrack.co.nz is now importing Boyds' stocks, I finally managed to get one and made...

I went for a quick hunting trip to find a deer since the weather forecast was incredible for early winter - and found one! Featuring ice, deer, and a rather useless cameraman (me). This was my first kill with the 147gr ELD-M out of my .260, and I am impressed so far. https://youtu.be/w6KosLqhN88

I managed to get out the other day with my .260 and test my new 147gr ELD-M load at longer range; initial results are promising... http://youtu.be/mZvjcMGA33w

I started working up some handloads for the new Hornady 147gr 6.5mm ELD-M in my .260 Sako 85. I say "new" because we only just got them here in New Zealand last week. Here's the initial results (and some other stuff): https://youtu.be/xBg7rO9gWi0
