Did we do this one? Jim misses BOAL because his Leupold lost zero.

I quit when he talked to warne and the guy told him they couldn't make the top ring half round; they simply choose to make a light ring that moves when machined.

 

[Chris_in_Idaho]

He's got a big following and right now seems especially ripe to have his eyes opened to the world of drop testing.

@Ryan Avery have you ever reached out to Jim?

 

[Reburn]

I wonder if that’s why muleyfreak boy moved from Leupold to Nightforce? He knew the Leupold’s were faulty and their integrity wouldn’t allow them to shoot them at living animals anymore regardless of whatever perks they may have been receiving from Leupold.

Sorry this has gotten a little off-topic, and I am not the contributor of mayhem…

When your poaching you cant afford to miss.

I talked to Jay(Mindful Hunter), who produces excellent, unbiased content. He agreed to come down and go through the drop test with us. We will go to the store, buy an MK5, and walk him through the test. He will video, and we will video. It will be great.

Funniest damn thing I've heard lol. Like MuleyFreak would change scopes over "ethics". They just know they get clicks when they kill stuff. Missing makes that harder.

Yeah, that’s some bs.

I couldn’t help but notice the ring caps are marked 18 in/lb. If that’s all he torqued them to I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a factor.

Also, we can’t be calling that a BOAL for Utah ranch hunting influencers can we?

Badass. And a proofing scope will be involved also I’m assuming? Like drop one, have it pass, and then drop the other, and it is what it is type of thing?

Dude... we aren't rookies. There is always a control. LOL

This is great news. Jay is a solid dude and his work is built around unsponsered content. It'll be epic.

 

[Southernfried]

Between the drop tests, mud tests, and ice tests he’s done with pistols and rifles he’s certainly willing to make manufacturers upset. Plus I’m pretty sure he’s already in ID, so he’s practically local.

Just need Form to agree to use AAC ammo.

Ive watched his (GT) test videos, and found his freezing tests after reading Forms freezing posts on here. I actually like his content for the most part and he does seem unbiased. I have a 1911 (yea Im a boomer) and it opened my eyes when everyone of them, when he dropped them muzzle down, everyone of them discharged. I had no idea.

I hope the dirt road to the range is at least 10 miles long and full of washboards…

GT actually did a minor drop test on a Primary Arms LPVO or two. He didn't measure the POI shift as close as the rok slide drop test. He just noted if there was significant shift.

He also did one a couple of years ago where he threw the rifle through the air and the PA LPVO came out fine. The problem with those kinds of tests (and with his pistol drop tests onto concrete) is that the 'methodology' is both far more extreme, and less repeatable, than Form's.

I'd leave the YouTube influencing to him, and the testing to Form ...

What it comes down to is that GT's content is designed to get clicks and views, and Form's is designed to get results. Check out the complaints on SH about Form's tests being boring!

Hahaha I just had to check . Looking forward to that content!!

Is this going to be a full 3000 round evaluation for both scopes or just the Drop portion? Please at the least include a driving test too so nobody can hide behind "I never fall down."

Still going use a POS scope, just going to check zero….. who has patience for that? Why is this the take away?…. So close and fumbles walking across the goal line.
