    ZERO CHECK CLIP ON

    My lawns need mowing soon,so my 1st summer hunting trip will be soon.
    Went to the range this afternoon.Check my thermal clip on for zero at 300yds.3 shots low right with nor west blowing,dialed up and got a 3 shot 1" group + a low right flyer.Very close for a 10" deer sholder.

    That's what I like: about as vanilla as they come, and does the job just as well as a rigs costing 3-4 times as much

    Cripes you can shoot.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
