    Supporting our Veterans: New Product -- worth a try!

    I think most of us here love to support the people willing to put their lives on the line to protect our freedoms. In the last few years, some of these individuals have started businesses with a quality, no-compromise product. A great example is Black Rifle Coffee to many of the products we use...

    Does low parallax affect image quality?

    Well, if the scope is decent and you find yourself repeating this process, you've never really set up the ocular correctly in the beginning. You should not need to readjust the ocular at different distances and if the parallax-free image (moving your eyes off center) produces a fussy image you...

    Does low parallax affect image quality?

    Technically, as others have said, with good glass, a wide range of focus control (parallax) doesn't degrade the image quality. My Swaro ATX 95mm spotter focuses down to about 3 yards. You can easily pay up to $8K for the Top-of-the-line ATX, and granted the size and weight are a non-starter for...

    Recoil Management

    Ok, this seems as if you have put a ton of thought into this. I am not going to say I believe you are right or wrong, just wrapped very tightly around the axel on something that isn't the same for every individual. In my experience, shooting from tripods, hunting with them long enough ago that...

    Advanced Marksmanship Tips & Tricks, from Tripods to Stage Examples for - UKD Team Field Match or Hunting

    :) the issue is the timing for this match is smacked up against my Elk hunting season. The over all idea was for the stages to be challenging from a team approach, to navigate the time as effectively as possible, and make choices as to what team member shoots what, what targets to SKIP, to stay...

    Tuners in question ?

    A couple of antidotal observations: Does a loose wobbly tuner or brake affect accuracy, sure has when it's happened to me.. I've had a brand-new Remington factory 6.5, shoot no better than 1.5MOA. Strapped a Magneto speed to it to see what the heck might be going on with the velocity of the...

    22i versus 34 etc for hunting ?

    One of the things, especially hunting in the West, people don’t often understand is you generally have time to formulate a plan. Often you’ll glass stuff miles away, you have time to set tripod especially if it has a sling. With distance come time, with time you can set up much better. The 22i...

    Spotting scope tripod advice

    Other than square range setups where you can use a buggy or short hop from the vehicle to practice or that's how the PRS match is set up, where heavy doesn't matter... There are TWO camps for hunting and tripods; the same is true for most field matches or matches require you are far away from...

    Stone Glacier Gear

    I also use Kifaru stuff. Their Gun bearer (sp) is the best product ever - I even use the clip on my bino harnes for my bow. I’d agree - Kifaru is in another league when it comes to durability

    Stone Glacier Gear

    Yeah I’m sure the product has failed before but I am with you above. I’ve hauled numerous Elk quarters out. Sometimes with so much I can barely walk and usually need help to sit up. Truth be told even if the pack stay broke at some point I’d rather have the hip system over that keeps the hind...

    Stone Glacier Gear

    Here is the basic issue- some people need ultra robust outer layer, other something ultra light and breathable, some rain resistant and some quite as possible- Just like packs, buy the wrong one optimized for a use that is not your’s and you’ll think it is junk. It isn’t always in the product...
