My friend has a fierce rogue ct. He's a big fan.
Tagged out on our sheep at 585yds and then dropped a 360 class 7x7 bull elk at about 10 yard.
He had a 300wsm in a tikka lite. Says the fierce is mild to shoot in comparison.

Gotcha.
I remember that 663 being really light.
Not sure I'd personally step down in size. Having a bit more objective and reach would trump the flourite.
I have the 883. Carried it on a stone sheep hunt this august. No problem. In other words, don't sweat the weight in my opinion.
I'd be...
If you look in my postings I sold a 663m. It was awesome. Just lacked the lighting I wanted at 60x.
In the FS: post I included some pics of a goat that was a long ways away. Shows you how good the glass is.

some pics of our 2023 sheep with the kowa 883...
the kowa 883 was excellent. I spotted the important 2nd annuli the first day we spotted the rams when he was bedded and sky lined. The photo was somewhat clear but when you're dealing with the camera lens and the sensor, it's obviously not as sharp.
The extended was used a lot and it...
Heck yah. I have a kowa 883 and my friend has an older leupold gold ring. At the range I had a look through his leupold and it was noticeable.
If you're buying expensive binos to count tines on an elk at 50yds then don't waste your money. I use sightron 8x32 binos for that and they are great...
I recommend watching this movie.
It goes in deep on MOVI.
Let's you know what we're up to in BC thanks to WSF and WSSBC $$.

Sorry I was not clear enough.
I have had a kowa 663, 773 and 883.
I have compared the 65atx to the 663 and I returned the atx.
Then I bought the 773. Then a used 883.
If I were you and really wanted swaro I'd either grab the 85atx or the 65ats.

I bought and returned (paid fees) the atx65.
Not worth the cost.
Had a kowa 773. Now have a kowa 883.
Using on a sheep hunt next week where glass is important. See if it is worth the weight.
In short, don't buy the atx65 unless you'll own a couple diff't atx objectives.

Southern BC is a great place to hunt. Goats aren't as large as western bc billies. Might cost more for you.
USD is much stronger than cdn dollar too.
I live in SE BC and managed to get a 10" 11-12yr old Billie so there are some big ones out there.
Look in the east Kootenay's for outfitters...
Eddie bauer had a awesome trail cool long sleeve.
Can't seem to find it in Canada anymore. You might be able to track one down in the US though

I head out for Stone sheep in a couple weeks. I think the extender is going to come with me. Just never know what might need a closer look in the morning or evening.
Even if the image is a bit fuzzy due to heat waves, I think having it will help a bit. Potentially saving a lot of hiking...
