I'm down. Live in Parker. But I have nothing new to offer glass wise for the comparison as you already have my setup. HG 10x42 and Kowa 773. Unless you want to test some cheap Nikon Prostaff 5 10x42 that I can't get my wife to upgrade ! 🤣 Have a brand new set that we're just replaced under...
I'm in Parker, right down the road. Been here 12 years. Castle Rock is great, good access to a lot of adventures. If you thought Waterton was busy, cruise down to the Deckers area on a weekend between April and October.
I ended up with a handful of dies I either already have multiples of or don't load for. Would like to trade for one I'd like to have a second set of, 6.5 Creedmoor. Would like to stay with RCBS full length as that is what I use for everything else. This is what I have to trade:

I hunted Unit 4 in 2020. Had high expectations from a buddy who grew up there but had moved away. We had a blast, but the hunting sucked. My buddy was shocked at the change over the years he'd been gone. It will be a while before I go back, but I'll still be back.
I went with the 3-18X44 with the L-4W MOA reticle. One could say I scored a "deal". Nothing too crazy, I'm just in a few government/pro programs because of my line of work. A couple hundred off retail. I sold my SHV 3-10. I liked that scope too but the reticle didn't do it for me. Will finish...
Nightforce SHV 3-10X42. MOAR illuminated reticle. Purchased new in September 2022. It's been on 3 hunts. Comes with original box, paperwork, NF factory bungee style caps, BC flip up caps and a custom zero stop shim I drew and 3D printed. Glass is perfect. Great scope, just want to try...
We leave tomorrow evening for this hunt. Riding in Thursday. Figured we'd stay in Mogote for a night to shorten the Thursday drive. Can't wait to spend 8 days in the back country with my wife. Getting some meat and her first bull will be a huge bonus. The hard part is not packing too much...
