    10mm bullet selection

    That definitely is a big hog leg and the 44 mag will get the job done. How many rounds does it hold? The new Glock generation 5 is supposed to have corrected the high pressure issues that they were experiencing with previous generations but I cannot tell you through my owne experience and I...

    10mm bullet selection

    The xdm can handle the 220 grain with no problem. Look it up on youtube and you will see that while others have problems with high pressure hard cast bullets the xdm does not have issues. Fatrascal.

    What ammo to put in my 10mm for protection?

    Read this. https://www.americanhunter.org/content/alaska-outfitter-defends-fishermen-from-raging-grizzly-with-9mm-pistol/ I'm not telling anybody to use a 9mm for bear protection.

    Bino Bandit Eye Piece Shield-Is this a legit product?

    I like them. When not using them I just flip them backwards toward the objective lens. I like the ones with the buckle so you can protect the glass under the eye cups in the harness. Fatrascal.

    BTX with 65mm objective

    I think the btx eye piece is big and bulky. But if you don't mind carrying it then I think it is a beneficial tool and well worth it. There was a time that I carried 10x binoculars on my neck, 15x in my pack and 80mm spotting scope and a full sized aluminum Manfrotto tripod. But I was 20 years...

    Swaro ATX vs ATS worth the extra cost?

    I've owned the ATS and now owne the ATX. I love the modularity of the ATX system being able to change out to the BTX or a bigger ATX scope but if you are not interested in the modularity of the ATX then I suggest buying the ATS. Fatrascal.

    BTX with 65mm objective

    Personally I love the BTX paired with the 65 objective. Last year I sold my 95 objective and ordered a 115 objective but due to covid it took months to show up. But I had the 65mm and put it to use with the BTX. It was great. I would not backpack with the BTX with any objective but if I did I...
