    NX8 4x32x50 vs ATACR 4-16-42

    The 4-16x50 SFP and 4-16x42 FFP ATACRs are optically excellent, IMO.

    Tricer Tripod, Head, and Bino Adapter Review, By Matt Cashell

    Yeah, That design could use an improvement. The Wiser head uses a captured nut, which is a better design.

    Zeiss "Lifetime" Warranty - refusal to stand behind its product

    I’m not defending Zeiss’ customer service, but this is a curious case. I have never heard of optics of any type “developing scratches.” I have heard of coating failures, although those typically present as “bubbles” or spots. Scratches are, as the term implies, caused by physical contact...

    1.6x Extender on Kowa 66a

    My take is included here: https://www.rokslide.com/kowa-prominar-66a-review/ I don’t think most hunters will see a benefit of using the extender in most conditions.

    ATS 65 vs KOWA 66A

    The Kowa 66 is the top of the heap right now. Amazing piece of kit.

    Tricer Tripod, Head, and Bino Adapter Review, By Matt Cashell

    Thanks Sam. Still twisting the wrong way on occasion. It’s operator error though. Remember I’m a flip lock guy at heart though …

    Sig Zulu 9 Problem

    I agree with @TheBootBowhunting that the issue is most likely either a collimation or diopter issue. Even something barely off with either of those can lead to something like your describing. Sig should be able to easily test the collimation if adjusting the diopter doesn't solve your problem...

    Once again a “Influencer” is caught poaching on several hunts (Alpinecarnivore)

    Some of the stiffest non-violent Montana sentences I’ve seen were on wildlife cases. Poach a trophy ram in Montana and see what happens…

    7mm-08 for elk?

    Sure. Enjoy your fallow deer. I hear it’s delicious.

    7mm-08 for elk?

    Ok. 1) Contradiction is an acceptable description if you prefer, but I find hypocrisy to be more accurate. 2) The demand is implied, of course. 3) That is not a scientific fact. That is opinion supported by precisely nothing. If it is a fact backed by science, which you have already...

    ATS 65 vs KOWA 66A

    Oh I see. Thanks for clarifying. Maybe unsurprisingly, I’m not really a one spotter kind of guy. I like matching the tool to the job. A subcompact spotter is a perfect match for a long distance backpack hunt while a midsize spotter is good for general use, and a large spotter is great for a...
