    Hunting Pants (Dalibor vs. Alaios) & Rain Gear (Jupiter vs Koldo)

    Ended up going Koldo jacket and jupiter pants. The Koldo pants just fit terribly on me. One size was too small, the next size up was absurdly baggy.

    FNG from MA

    In MA, deer and turkey during shotgun season. I just got a bow, so that's in the future, but I've got a lot of practice time ahead of me before I'll feel confident and competent enough to hunt with it. The turkeys are definitely starting to come out and show themselves around here. Several...

    My comparison: Trijicon Tenmile HX vs. Vortex Razor LHT vs Vortex DB Tactical

    Thanks. Yes, I did set the diopter for each of them. When I first got the LHT, that was definitely a problem. It was a bright and clear sunny day, so low light performance wasn't something I could test. Color I would say was generally the same. The communications tower is a lattice style...

    I am not sure what you're saying.

    My comparison: Trijicon Tenmile HX vs. Vortex Razor LHT vs Vortex DB Tactical

    TL;DR: The high end scope was better but not glaringly better. I recently bought a Trijicon Tenmile HX 3-18x50 FFP and a Vortex Razor LHT 3-15x50 SFP. I have had a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4x16x44 FFP (unmounted) sitting in a safe for a long time. Since they are all unmounted, I was able...

    Sold Trijicon Credo HX 2.5-15x42

    Don't know your price range but DACK Outdoors has them (it may take forever to ship) at a pretty good price. EuroOptic has them for only $50 more than DACK (but you know you'll get it). Might want to check those out.

    Heavy outer layer or lighter weight shell with puffer underneath?

    Manitou1, what temps are you usually using that setup?

    Heavy outer layer or lighter weight shell with puffer underneath?

    Thanks Mojave. Kryptek lists the Dalibor under their "late season" category, but I hate the Kryptek site. They do a terrible job differentiating their products or even giving you a real idea of (use in this type of temps). It does have some lining to it, but it's definitely not heavy weight. It...

    Heavy outer layer or lighter weight shell with puffer underneath?

    New to hunting and starting to put some gear together. I think I'll mostly be hunting in milder weather (30 degrees and up) , but for times it gets colder and I'll be sitting in a stand, is it better to have a heavier coat (e.g. a Kryptek Vellus or Njord) or go with something like a Dalibor II...

    Steiner Predator 4, Zeiss Conquest 4 or Nightforce SHV for Tikka T3x Lite 7mm Rem Mag?

    Reading nuance on the internet is always dangerous, so maybe I'm wrong, but it seemed like you don't like the choices but were just choosing the best of the ones mentioned. Is there something else in that price range you'd suggest?

    Steiner Predator 4, Zeiss Conquest 4 or Nightforce SHV for Tikka T3x Lite 7mm Rem Mag?

    Thanks for your comment. Went looking for info on Steiner generally, and I'm going to drop it from consideration. Unfortunately, in doing more poking around, I've dropped the one and added two... Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x44 and Trijicon Credo HX 4-16x50. One step forward and two steps back it appears.

    Steiner Predator 4, Zeiss Conquest 4 or Nightforce SHV for Tikka T3x Lite 7mm Rem Mag?

    Thanks. Curious as to why the Leica? Do you have one? Have you used any of the others?

    Steiner Predator 4, Zeiss Conquest 4 or Nightforce SHV for Tikka T3x Lite 7mm Rem Mag?

    Planning on getting a Tikka T3x Lite in 7mm Rem Mag soon and looking for a scope for it. I think I've narrowed it down to the Steiner Predator 4 4-16x50 (~$900), Nightforce SHV 4-14x50 (~$1,000), or the Zeiss Conquest V4 4-16x50 (~$950). There's a lot out there on the NF and Zeiss, but not...

    Thanks. Took me forever to find a hunters ed course that was near me and fit my schedule. My friends were after me to do it for a while.

    Razor HD 3-15x42

    I just picked up the similar version (3-15 x 50) used. I was looking at it yesterday and comparing it to a Diamondback tactical that I picked up new on the cheap a while ago. I spent probably a half hour alternating between the two, looking at objects 1,300 yards to 95 yards away. I saw no...
