    Arken: Too Good to Be True Chinese Glass?

    https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/arken-epl-4-4-16x44mm-field-eval.301668/ Form did an evaluation of this one. Looks like it passed the 18" and left/right 36" drops and partially passed the single top drop. Things shifted after the 9x 36" drops and then it had trouble holding zero after that...

    6.5 grendel projectiles

    Shot a nice sized doe in 2022 at about 60 yards. She did a 30 yard death run and down. My daughter shot a button buck this year at about 40 yards. Buck kicked, ran in a circle, stopped and stood there for a few seconds, and tipped over. No fuss no muss. Both were shot using 123 eldm. Complete...

    No, I'm just the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, "Prepare the path for memes!"

    C-PAP for back country hunt

    Like @Titan said, the most efficient machine to run on a battery is one that uses an input of 12V. All CPAP machines use DC, but not all are 12V. Look at the box on the power cord that came with the machine and see what the output is. Here is one from a Resmed airsense 10. The box converts 110V...

    C-PAP for back country hunt

    Turn off all unnecessary functions (humidifier, Bluetooth/WiFi) and get a machine that uses 12v and doesn't convert from 12v to something higher. Capacity is lost when converting power.

    C-PAP for back country hunt

    Pretty good discussion here: https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/cpap-anything-new-for-backpacking-camping.259798/ I went with a Breas Z2 auto and the Renogy 7200 mah battery. Used it at 11,000 feet and after the 4th night the battery still showed 50%. Could have gone longer but I switched...

    Tikka vs. CZ 600

    There is a consensus that the Tikka is preferred over a Howa. I was in my lgs a while back and saw a CZ 600 on the rack. The action felt about halfway between the Howa and Tikka in terms of smoothness/quality. The CZ has a lot of preferred features that come standard: vertical grip, parallel...

    Best rechargeable headlamp

    I'll echo the 77 outdoor light. I used one on a 10 day hunt and it worked great. I especially like the shade of the red light. It is a true deep red color. My buddy has a Fenix and it is also a great choice. The difference in the red color between the two is noticable though. You could buy a few...

    LNIB used Meopta Meostars HD VS new Tract Torric UHD Schott Glass

    I have a pair of 8x42 Toric UHD and would recommend them. I've never looked through Meostars outside of the store so can't speak to those. If you keep an eye on the Tract outlet you can find them for a lot less than your budget. At that price they can't be beat.

    Hunting with camp on your back?

    We spike camp for 3-4 nights then come back to resupply and either go back or switch areas. Elk hunting is about covering ground and you can do that a lot faster without weight on your back.
