    2023 Meat Pole

    Nine day late season Manti unit here in Utah. I arrived on the mountain 3 days early to scout. Friends who planned on being with me could not make it so I was in the Springbar tent by myself w/o any connectivity for 9 days. Missed the biggest bull of my life on day 4. A storm drove me off the...

    Nine day late season Manti unit. On the mountain 3 days early. In the Springbar by myself w/o any connectivity for 9 days. Missed the biggest bull of my life on day 4. Storm drove me off the mountain day 6 of the hunt. Changed areas having been given a tip about this guy and 2 other bulls...

    Preferred impact velocity?

    "Maybe you have proof to back up your claims? I'd suggest a more gentlemanly and objective approach to boast your credibility. 😉"yy I'll see what I can come up. And yes, I was a bit over the top. My apologies to RockyMtnMT. When I read where someone maligns Barnes Bullets and i've seen just...

    Preferred impact velocity?

    Hey, RockyMtnMT, Rant on! I'd sure we'd all like to see your proof that "Barnes on the other hand don't expand well below 2400fps and furthermore in order to generate significant hydrostatic shock (critical for fast killing especially with a monolithic bullet) ideally impact velocity needs to...

    NF reticle hashmark boldness

    I doubt it's my RX since I was doing a SxS test and I could clearly see the small .2 mil windage hashmarks on the NX8 at 16x.

    NF reticle hashmark boldness

    About 6 months back I bought both a 4-16 ATACR and 4-32 NX8, both with Tremor 3 reticles. Have been running them both on different rifles but was noticing that when shooting with the ATACR the fine .2 mil hashmarks were difficult to see. Yesterday, I got behind both of them, going back and...

    Any 9.3x62 shooters on here?

    Had a CZ 550 back about 15 years ago for my Alaska grizz hunt. No joy with the rifle. Killed a 62" Alaska Yukon bull moose with my 45 Colt at 15 yds. A few years after that I had a custom pre 64 M70 turned into a very nice accurate 9.3x62. It's stupid accurate with 250 TTSX and Varget. It's...

    Help picking Binoculars

    Tim, I understand your decision but I still want to share my choices as others may benefit. Being a LR competitor for the past 15 yrs as well as hunter I want it all. For years I ran my beloved Zeiss 10x42 B's. Loved them to death. In conjunction ran first, the Leica 1600 then 1600B LRF...

    Suggestions on a new range finder or binoculars

    With the Leica Geovid Pro's and Kestrel 5700 Elite, I set the Pro's to cycle off after only 1 minute to save battery. I can either do the same to the Kestrel or if enough time elapses it will cycle off by itself. Which is fine with me because I can simply hit the power button the Kestrel and...
