The only leupold I’ve ever paid for was the bx4, I love them. I liked the other leupold stuff I’ve looked through but I’ve always bought something else for whatever reason. I’m thinking a trijicon may be my next step due to good enough glass and usable reticle. I feel like where I see my bucks...
I did pay more for both the meopta scopes each than I did for the binos.. take a batch of 3-9x40 scopes. They all will be very similar as far as parts and operation go. But only one can be the brightest. I’d guess that comes down to coatings. I know bright doesn’t always mean better. But someone...
I’ve thought about dipping my foot in the Burris pool. Now I’m thinking of selling the meopro and trying to find a trijicon thanks to bearwhisky the tr-22(I think) looked good.
Exit pupil being larger is better to a certain extent. The meopro allowed me to see the animal but not near as good as the bx4’s. I could possibly make a shot with the meopro if I could make out the cross hairs. I agree that the bigger tubes are better for low light. The 30mm optika looks...
I agree. I’ve kinda been thinking it’s a coatings thing. The glass on the optika seems way brighter than the meopro to me and several friends. The glass on the meopro is sharper to me though. I think the meopro glass is close to the bx4 glass but the coatings on the meopro are darker.
I’ve...
Yeah the optika 6 has the best reticle to me. It has thick lines on the side and bottom and a small portion of the crosshairs are illuminated kinda like a dot. It doesn’t wash out. I’m good with the 50mm objective. Not sure if I’d like the 56mm but I’m open to any suggestions. I really just...
I’m in a similar boat just rowing in a different direction. Lol My problem is the bx4 binos are great, counting points in low light is easy, but I couldn’t make out the deer with the meopro to take the shot. I can identify deer with them well into night. When I hunt at my house I usually sit and...
4 for the Nikon and meopro, 3 for the optika. I always keep the scope at the lowest setting for quick shots. So I’d prefer to stay in the 2,3,or 4 for lowest power. High end I’d say 9-15.
I’ve had these binos for about a month now. They are fantastic. Crisp clean image. Kinda narrow on fov but that isn’t an issue. The problem is the low light ability is unreal. I’ve seen a large bob cat and two shooter bucks. I haven’t been able to pull the trigger on any of them because my...
So I’ve only had these for a month, I love them. I watched deer move over an hour past sun set in the deep woods of Alabama. I could tell bucks from does and count points/judge deer under 100 yards. They are fabulous. Deer either appear bright white or jet black with surrounding landscape...
So I’ve emailed athlon twice since I took to the slide for answers, first time I emailed was after https://rokslide.com/forums/members/4720/ posted his response. The second was this morning. Still no word. I’m leaning maven crf but it is out of stock.
Realistically around 5-600 yards and in. With maybe a range day out to 1000 yards once a year. So both rangefinders are available without the wheel? Is the price the same for each model with/without the wheel?
The crf looks like a good one. I wish I can demo that model. I’m not crazy about the steering wheel on the side of the rf1 to be honest. I just feel like it would get moved unintentionally.
