    Talk me out of a Leupold SX-4 15-45x65

    Well y'all talked me out of it. Or at least finding an Athlon Ares G2 15-45 for less than $500 talked me out of it, anyway 😅.

    Leupold CDS

    Depends a lot on the distance. You can be wrong by double and never notice if you think it's 50y but it's actually 100y. But if you guess 400 and it's actually 450, you'll miss entirely or would the animal. Spend some time playing with ballistic calculators and keep and eye on the drop...

    Entry/Mid range Binoculars

    Used from a brand with a bulletproof warranty. 100%. Wouldn't shock me to see a pair of BX-4 Pro guide 10x42s on ebay for $300. I think I paid $350 for mine. Insane quality for the money. Vortex obviously has the same quality of warranty and I've heard good things about Athlon as well.

    Talk me out of a Leupold SX-4 15-45x65

    Thanks. Yeah I love my BX-4 10x42s. One of my best friends has a pair of swaro 10x binos and sure, they're better, but like, not $2000 better 😂. Which is exactly why I've been looking at the SX-4.

    Talk me out of a Leupold SX-4 15-45x65

    Are there any high-power binos in this price range worth considering? I'm not opposed to the idea but I'm not immediately familiar with decent options. Thanks all for the suggestions and thoughts. Keep 'em comin'!

    Talk me out of a Leupold SX-4 15-45x65

    I've been saving up for a Leupold SX-4 15-45x65 spotter, and now it's time for my typical "talk me out of it" process before I drop $$$ on something I'll hopefully pass down to my kids. I've been using a 13-33x50 Nikon ED Field scope for the past 6 years or so; it was my first spotter. I...

    How do you store reloaded ammo

    I've also had issues with "welding" to the case, although no one has been able to explain it to me (including some very smart and educated engineers familiar with metallurgy). Anyway, I was able to solve the problem by adding a swipe of graphite to the inside of the neck before seating. Works...

    New scale

    I'm dying to know how you're measuring consistency.

    Game meat dog food recipes?

    This argument has always cracked me up. Dogs do great on cooked food because we've been feeding dogs cooked food for at least three thousand years. Maybe ten thousand.

    Game meat dog food recipes?

    My guy. Are you saying your dogs stopped pooping when you put them on a raw diet? I mean I'm not a doctor, but... 😬

    139gr CX loads for 7mm-08?

    So far no, but my scope is on its last leg so I'll pick up the accuracy testing once I have a better optic mounted.

    Hammer Bullets - what makes them so great?

    Everyone knows 125gr is too light, won't kill elk 😝

    Hammer Bullets - what makes them so great?

    Just logging another super clean kill with the HH (this time with the 120gr out of my 7mm-08). MV ~3025fps and a 60 yard shot. Probably my best shot placement on a deer -- entered and exited just behind the legs. The HH made soup of the lungs and he went all of 30 yards before dropping. 👍
