    Bx4 10x42 problems

    Did you make it around to testing them? Which reticle did you choose?

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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...

    The 3-9x40 accupoint? What reticle do you have? I wish they made a simple 50mm objective in a 2-10 or 2-12 range.

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    Say 100-400 possible range. Mainly 300 and down. Large canopy growth timber/ open field and powerline (50/50%)

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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...

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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.

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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...

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    Does the glass and coatings seem similar on the vx3 and bx4?

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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...

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    I’m looking more for hands on. Applied and tested specs. If the scope uses the same coatings then I probably need to check on that.

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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...

    Binos vs Scope at low light?

    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...

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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.

    Bx4 10x42 problems

    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...

    Ok I’m an idiot… turns out it was a game camera. 🤦🏼‍♂️

    Bx4 10-42

    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...

    Rangefinder

    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.

    Rangefinder

    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?

    Rangefinder

    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.

    Is there a difference in the g2 model or is that cosmetic. I notice the g2 1 mile is grey.
