No changes from Leica on their compact LRFs...

 

[OBP]

What did Leica change on the ultravid?

 

[Sam Millard]

The "+" version has a different coating. 10x42 only as of now.

 

[Matt Cashell]

New Zeiss sf binoculars. Very impressive view.

Remington 700 Ultimate Muzzleloader

 

[Retterath]

any specs on the sig rangefinder or the geovid-R such as angle comp?

 

[Sam Millard]

For all of us 7mm shooters, "the guy" at Hornady says the 162 AMAX was scheduled for production on Jan. 1...supposed to produce as much as what was ordered last year. Full run!

Thanks Sam!

Leupold's VX-6 looks promising as a lighter alternative for an 800 yard rifle.

Sam , if Winchester components is there ask about when they are going to make some 7mm WSM brass !

 

[Retterath]

i need some 7wsm brass really bad also.

Remington ultimate muzzleloader weighs in around 9lbs. They use a proprietary case which is kind of a bummer. You can use loose powder however they suggest pellets? Id love to give it a test run. It is built on the 700 action and appears aftermarket stuff will work like stocks and triggers.

They said the Sig has angle comp from 6-1600 yards.

The archery geovid ranges from 10-600 with angle comp and is $400 less than the rifle model.

The new coatings are much more neutral when compared to the older model.

That's outstanding news.
