    Customer service

    I’ve never heard any comments on sig sauers customer service and figured I at minimum needed to put this out there if anyone searches. I had an old kilo850 RF that I think I paid 130$ for in high school. It started to spazz and that was ok as i got my moneys worth. I called sig sauer to see if...

    Calculating angle compensation

    I’m surprised that horizontal distance is the constant with gravity and not air time. This is obviously true because wether I’m shooting uphill or down hill at the same incline my cut will be the same, where I would expect it to be different.

    Calculating angle compensation

    Outside of air resistance, are there any factors that affect trajectory on steep cuts? Is that the only added factor compared to a flat shot?

    Calculating angle compensation

    Care to poke at why that is? I would think the time in the air affects trajectory more than horizontal distance traveled. Why does vertical travel not affect trajectory?

    Calculating angle compensation

    Incredible. What I did not understand is that the angle compensated range is true horizontal distances? Is this true to extreme angle of 50 degrees?

    Calculating angle compensation

    I shot a buck yesterday and want to know the non angle compensated range. It was 86 yards with 100 feet elevation loss. Is there a formula for this? Is it rangefinder specific? I’m guessing I could take the approximate slope of the hill, but once I know what the angle of the shot was now what?

    Sig Zulu 6 IS Bino vs Vortex UHD 10x42 for chest binos

    Do you genuinely feel failed IS would hamper your hunt more than failed RF? I’ll take the inferior performing binos and working RF

    Sig Zulu 6 IS Bino vs Vortex UHD 10x42 for chest binos

    Although you are correct because people do kill with trad gear and did it prior to rangefinders, success rates have changed drastically. My success would plummet.

    Sig Zulu 6 IS Bino vs Vortex UHD 10x42 for chest binos

    Bummer, I personally haven’t seen any but noted to stay away from luepold RF. You strongly disagree that it takes a rangefinder to kill with a muzzy or bow?

    Sig Zulu 6 IS Bino vs Vortex UHD 10x42 for chest binos

    I’m going to say from my experience I’ll take the dead IS binoculars over a dead rangefinder every day, I primarily bow hunt or muzzleloader hunt. And you just won’t kill with out a rangefinder. Besides, I have yet to have a rangefinder battery issue and that makes me open to the IS binos. Has...

    Those above saying they’d never use battery operated optic…. I hope you’re using rangefinders lol. Those comments made me chuckle

    Muzzy optics

    That does make sense, I like the pros you listed. I appreciate your response and explanation!

    Muzzy optics

    I’m a little thrown off, your I’m a little thrown off, you are switching to the Leupold red dot, you are enjoying it in varying lighting conditions and you recommend a scope, why?

    Valuing tags

    I know I’m not utilizing this enough. I tell myself it’s because I have not found areas worth returning too, but maybe I’m convinced there’s always better

    Valuing tags

    Although I don’t disagree, how do I find these areas that hold great genetics with tags I can draw somewhat often?

    Valuing tags

    It’s crazy some people still care for those when out in the hills.

    Valuing tags

    When first starting to pick up multiple tags (mule deer) across different states I valued harvest success over everything else. As the tags go by I’m finding myself choosing tags on this criteria in descending importance. Season dates (something that allows 5 full days of hunting at minimum)...

    Muzzy optics

    What’s some opinions on duplex 1x scopes opposed to red dots. I’ve honestly never had either on a rifle. Does one do better in early light? Target acquisition might be quicker with a red dot due to large field of view?

    FNG done leeching

    Finally done leeching all the info from the background. I'm 22 years old, out of ut county, Utah. I decided hunting one weekend a year with my dad wasn't going to cut it and picked up a bow 6 or 7 years ago for a longer season. Teaching yourself to bow hunt with no area knowledge or anyone to...
