I had to double check the specs on the nomad. Looks like configured similarly (flat end caps and DT) it’s ~1” longer and ~1oz heavier. The scythe has end caps for different calibers too, albeit from aftermarket companies.
I haven’t shot the nomad, but based on volume and previous editions I...
Was mentioned above but the most expensive component is reusable.
Agree once you factor in time it’s really tough to justify the “cost”. That said most do it because they enjoy it and think they are getting more from the cartridge.
Heck if you factored in equipment and dies you’d be way...
I mean satellite messaging is pretty slick too….and free. I guess Apple just appealing to the hunters.
Edit: joking aside…per their site doesn’t appear to support non Apple. A bit weird.
I snagged a Nemo disco 15 last night new for $120. It’s a 6oz heavier but warmer. Reviews are it’s warm for rating.
At least for that cost your far enough away from SG that it may be worth it.
I haven’t reached out yet. I’m waiting on another harness to try a different holster option on.
I couldn’t get it enough clearance with the holster I use which has a push button release.
Kuiu is a tough one because the waist belt is almost mid way up the harness. Leaving only a few inches. I...

Check this out. Cool option. I got mine last week. I’m trying to fit in on a Kuiu harness but it’s not going to work. The Kuiu straps are too close IMO compared to normals straps that are closer to top and bottom.
Up for grabs if...
I used it last weekend. Impressive. Much quicker than in reach. “If” you maintain a sat lock, it is nearly as instant as normal LTE messaging. Seconds not minutes.
I had that issue with new brass. As soon as I prepped the case mouth and filed the metal on the end of the tikka mag down a little (had a square edge catching the brass), it solved it.
The intermediate fix was to close bolt with authority like you mentioned…why I think it could be similar.
I compared for a good amount of time 12x42NLs and 12x50 Els.
I thought they were nearly identical. FOV of NLs maybe a shade bigger (less than 10% actual not provided #s).
I think the eye relief and placement forgiveness were better with ELs (makes sense bigger exit pupil). I get a bit of...
