    Tech liked post by Southcity On thread : What do you have in your kit others may welcome knowing?
    Thought I would start a thread about those little things we all have that makes life easier. I have been hunting with people and see something they have and think.....I’m going to get one of those!...

    Tech liked post by Frodo On thread : Swarovski slc/el bino
    The biggest difference between them is that the EL and SLC are based on two different optical designs, and you may have a preference for one over the other. The EL incorporates field flattening...

    sneeze it really depends what sort of hunting you do. I chase deer on places where some extra weight and carry size is not an issue. But hauling around Chamios country I think the 10 x 32 EL’s are...

    I agree with MSL. Buy a stand alone pair of Binos. Technology in range finders is lightening fast. You will end up with an out dated pair in no time. I have the 10 x 42 EL’s and believe they are...

    I soaked my brass in vinegar/water mix or lemon juice/water the other day it cleaned the brass up pretty good , leave them to soak over night primer pockets where much better , to dry them put them...

    Tech liked post by Sarvo On thread : Thermal scopes and binoculars
    I have read 1000m with the Accolade LRF and that was a XQ50 But 800m is always and that extra bit depends on moisture in air I am guessing

    Tech liked post by Southcity On thread : Swaro SLC W B 8x42 vs Leica Trinovid HD 8x42
    I reckon the Swaro EL 10 x 32 are the perfect New Zealand compact bino. I have EL 10 x 42’s which are very nice but size and weight wise the 32’s are the answer and you lose nothing in magnification....

    Tech liked post by Southcity On thread : High end binos
    For what’s it worth I bought a pair of Swarovski EL 10 x 42’s 5 years ago. I am very happy with them. ( I had a pair of SLC 8 x 30’s for 25 years before that are now with my son and still going...

    Tech liked post by Moa Hunter On thread : High end binos
    You are young and so young eyes will compensate for some optical difference - meaning you wont notice it the same now as when age steals sight in the future. I used 16x Nikons for a long time. I...

    Tech liked post by winaa On thread : .270 140 game kings exploding
    That's an interesting email, and actually goes against there own advertising. I have 7mm 140gr PH and 140gr HP-GK here, I might section a couple for interests sake. And when we are back to normal...

    Tech liked post by Flyblown On thread : .270 140 game kings exploding
    Yes please do winaa. I got pretty close to perfecting the section process by using some very fine files to finish them, worked really well. I also set up a proper camera and lighting so I could...

    Tech liked post by Flyblown On thread : .270 140 game kings exploding
    I challenged Nathan on this very matter in 2017. That is precisely what led me to emailing Sierra! I think Nathan is flat out wrong about the ProHunter being a tougher bullet, maybe because he has...

    Tech liked post by Flyblown On thread : .270 140 game kings exploding
    Just a comment about the GameKing vs the Pro-Hunter. When it comes to the construction they are made on the same machines using the same materials and the same process. I have an interesting email...

    Tech liked post by Southcity On thread : Spotting Scope Recommendations
    Hi Planenutz. With a 65mm objective it would be quite manageable hunting even in Chamios country. I have used it in Otago Hgh country on deer and found it fine. I am using a Swarovski carbon fibre...

    Clarity of glass is one key factor long range. I also struggle with closing one eye and looking for long periods through a spotter. I bit the bullet and bought a Swarovski BTX. It has a binocular...
