I'm off on an IBEX hunt in November to Kyrgyzstan and just wanted to confirm what I should have my Kestrel Set for. We are going to be moving around a lot and camping out possibly even. For that reason am I right in thinking it should be set for Station Pressure. Is that correct? I will really...

I was in the same position and after much research purchased a Leupold SX-4 Pro Guide HD 15-45x65 Thus far I'm very happy with it. I have owned a number or Spotting Scopes in the past including some older Gold Ring Leupolds and a Vortex Viper however this is the best Scope I have owned for sure...

Thanks for that, I recon 600 yards will be my maximum...

So my rifle is a 300 win Mag Christensen Arms Carbon Classic (Old model with the Rem 700 action). This is for a Ibex hunt in Kyrgyzstan in Nov (depending on this virus situation, otherwise it will be pushed back to 2021) Im worried about the guides, they wont give me time to stuff around getting...

I know this is a long shot but has anyone got Air Pressure, Altitude and Temperature data for an Ibex hunt in November they can share? The reason is I'm wanting to get a site turret tape made up prior to my trip. I think 12000' feet is a safe bet and -2 degrees Celcius for daylight temperatures...

Thanks a lot for the advice. I should have mentioned, I'm not an inexperienced Mountain Hunter. Im an Ex pat NZer living in Australia now. I grew up hunting Chamois and Tahr in the Southern Alps of NZ it's just that quite often in NZ shots are not that far. I have never had to shoot a Tahr past...

My hunt is in kyrgyzstan next November and my rifle is a Christensen Arms Carbon Classic with a 4-16x50 F1 in Tally Mounts. I have not really done a lot of long range hunting, to be honest I prefer to get as close as possible. I did test the rifle on a Fallow doe at 385 yards and that was fine...

Hi i'm a noob here but have a few Tac15i questions. First will any AR15 or M4 type aftermarket stock fit onto my Tac15i ? Does it use the same buffer tube setup as an AR-15 Second, My Tac15i strips fletches big time, virtually every shot. Does this mean it needs paper tuning or is there...
