Yes, I am looking at them now. I have always been a crosshair reticle guy. But I also like the old german post style as well. Not great for ranging, but good for accuracy.
yep. I will never buy them again. Terrible.
You dont even have to be on line to print, the cartridges have chips on them that they control. If you dont have the subscription, they wont let you use the cartrdiges. I know theres a work around, since it is a scam anyway.
Wow. your all in on Athelon.
Has the POI been consistant? Any issues with turret locking/paralax/focus adjustments? Any fogging issues ?
I may look at them for a decent spotter as well.
Midway has the 6-24 for 230 on sale. Not that I need that much power, but its nice to have.
Most decent scope manufacturers do lifetime warranty as well. But I dont have any expereince with Athelon, but I am hearing good things so far. I would consider them to try out and if it didnt work out...
How do you like the Athelon glass quality? I looked at a couple at a gun show. Looks pretty good, but to compared to Vortex/Leupold, is it worth the same $$ ?
You arent kidding. Im done with HP printers. The chip in the ink cartridges and subscriptions is a rip off. Lock your printer up if you cancel and cant use thier cartridges? Done. If I ever need to buy one again, its gonna be epson with refil your own.
Nice shooting !
Everything I have ever read and experienced in my life is that barrels prefer to be dirty. Most believe that dirty barrels are more consistant with a little fouling than after being cleaned. I usually clean (centerfire ones), do a group of 5-10 rds then pack it away. The next...
Very interesting. I prefer the calculated approach, but I can understand that under 35yds the energy will be similar. I have never gotten into black powder stuff. Although, I can see why its just as fun (and loud).
Airgunning is relatively new to me, but I have spent my whole life involved in...
Awesome groups brother. (y)
Question: If your goal is to use the slug on hogs, do you consider terminal velocity at certain distances?
I would imagine that the chrono reads the speed at/near the muzzle, but the energy at say 50 yards has to be slower. Is that enough for a good kill ?
I am...
Maybe not airgun enough but I have other tools that are just as fun.
Little critters need to go dig holes in the woods and leave my grass alone. I put some grub killer down and yet they still are trying to come around and eat the dying ones.
Country living is challenging to say the least but...
yeah, at the minimum, I should use a 22LR rifle for enough energy and velocity. Theres no one to wake up around me anyway, but I have been eyeing some suppressors too. My wallet is aching just talking about this stuff. lol
I wish it was that simple but I live in the woods. Im surrounded by nature.
Not that I mind, but the real issue I have is armadillos. Little boogers dig up holes all over my yard.
They only come out at night and Im not sure a head shot will work, but maybe the only option. And I dont have...
Well, it all depends on your stature. I myself struggle with a neck surgury that creates almost impossible cheek-stock ability these days. Hurts just thinking about it. lol
Lazy is just a natural way of your body saying "ouch, relax"
