    Moa Hunter liked post by Woody On thread : A comparison of HD vs non HD high end scopes
    Comes down to users practical requirements. I could not even consider the cost of a 56mm HD Leupold and even the vx5 you mention are 2k+; so for performance and value -- pretty clear to me ay.

    Moa Hunter liked post by Woody On thread : A comparison of HD vs non HD high end scopes

    I was fortunate to be able to gather together four high end scopes for comparison in diminishing light conditions. The target was a cypress tree 200 m distant. The basic foliage was dull green with...

    If you had tipped it over onto its side with a cannister inside but not with the lever down (engaged) they can just by the weight of a full cylinder, push down just enough on the nozzle to make them...

    Have a very similar set up but upgraded to a Soto Windmaster from the the 25gm BRS cooker. Found it better in windy spots.

    Moa Hunter liked post by T.FOYE On thread : Accuracy expectations
    I'm gonna take a guess that all your projectiles were above 80gn? Try those targex 70gn flat base. Seat them just off the lands and use a moderate powder to fill out the case. If that doesn't work...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Bagheera On thread : Accuracy expectations
    I think that's pretty good for a restored classic sporter with modest powered scope. If its averaging outside 1 MOA for 5 shots then probably it could be improved with more work. I would look at...
