BX-4 Gen 2
Hotmail, I actually buy BX-1's for a Big Buck contest I put on in Nevada and the Leupold name pleases people more than if I get Vortex gen -1 Diamondbacks. These are for the youth category and usually are the first pair of bino's these kids will owne. My objective is to give them a start in... -
Spotting scope objective lens: 56mm vs 85mm for backpack hunting?
Another fan of a 65mm scope. My choice is Swaro but you can choose one of the brands up above which are all equal. I realize you are too close to your hunt to sell both of your vortex scopes and upgrade to something else so my vote goes to the 56mm. It will let you look at and evaluate what... -
BTX 85v95v115? Observation and digiscoping
Sometimes the human eye cannot see the differences between sizes of objective lenses as compared to the amount of light and quality of the image. Sometimes those differences show up during digiscoping pictures and video. The rule is that the bigger the objective lens the more light you get and... -

Springfield xdme 10mm with 3.8" or 4.5" barrel. Buffalo Bore 180, 200 or 220 grain hard cast. Or Underwood 180, 200, or 220 hard cast. Or DoubleTap 180, 200 or 220 hard cast. All of this ammo can be bought through the mail. Expensive yes but worth it. Fatrascal. -

Fierce Firearms Disaster
I know other people who get this or that custom made gun only to have problems. I've seen this with rifles, AR rifles, and pistols. Meanwhile i get guns off of the shelf at my local gun store and have no issues. My only preference is American made namebrand guns such as Ruger, Remington, Savage... -
Swarovski EL - Overhyped?
Saving up my Cabela credit card points for NL's. Did have EL's from 2004. Upgraded to the range finding EL's. But i do not like the optic quality when compared to non range finding EL's. Have looked through the NL's several times and they are amazing. With that being said, you need to compare... -

Swarovski 25x50 eyepiece or 20x60

Stupid poll: Which rifle?
Take both but plan on hunting with .300. If you drop it and knock the scope off then you got a back up in the truck. Fatrascal. -

I'm a kenetrek mountain extreme man. I'm probably on my 10th pair. I keep one pair for hunting and one pair that i wear everywhere. I also have a pair of lineman extremes by kenetrek. Thats how much i love them. Been wearing them probably around 15 to 20 years. -

Am I stupid not to take a spotting scope on an early season high country buck hunt?
I would not ever be without a spotter. I absolutely love spotting with bino's on a tripod but it cannot do the job of a spotter. No way no how. I find lots of critters with binos but after i've looked at everything, i then take out the spotter and find more critters. Thats why i'm there. To find... -
ATX 65 vs. 85 objective
I started out with the ats 80 in the early 2000's. I too am a backpack hunter and after awhile i upgraded and went wiyh the atm 65. Then again later to the atx 65. I have never missed the extra size or extra light gathering ability of an 80mm when backpack hunting. I used to owne the 95mm but... -
