My last one was less than 48 hrs from certifying. Took longer to do the form 3 and get it shipped to my local dealer.

Welcome!

Yes

As far as I could ever tell the 118lr was usually pretty consistent across years.

No sympathy…either direction.

Garmin was attached to rifle via the arca rail so position was fixed. All fired from a bolt action so plenty of time between shots IMO:

String 1 - 30/30
String 2 - 30/30
String 3 - 27/31
String 4 - 9/10

So it started falling off and I don’t know why. Better than it was before the most recent update, but not perfect.

You guys are definitely convincing me to make sure not to update my software. I'm looking to keep the 1k+ round streak alive of never having the Garmin fail to capture a rifle shot. It has even done well enough with pistol rounds given that I never have it positioned within it's recommended alignment window when using it on handgun as the little shelf at all the pistol ranges is well below bore level.

I wonder what they changed to cause this issue with dropped shots? Did they change something in the units determination of whether a shot is from the intended shooter or an adjacent lane? I don't think those settings needed to be messed with. I have had a lot range sessions with dudes shooting in adjacent lanes and have not had any of their shots mistakenly read as one of mine.

Yes. SMK ogjives and lengths vary from lot to lot, but with the same die setting they seat pretty close to the same coal. I’ve seen them as short as 1.225” and as long as 1.255”.

Do you know if the design was ever intentionally changed?
The M118LR i have is from 08.
Then I have FGMM from 2010 (old red box) which I just measured and is the same as current SMKs.

Does anyone know how to change the mapping from Google Maps to OnX or BaseMap?

Click to expand...

Based on how I have used laser rangefinders in conjunction with BaseMap before, I believe you would be placing the point while in the BaseMap app and not from within the VECSS app. With the premium versions of BaseMap, there is a remote marker option under the tools section that what you would open to place a remote point within the BaseMap app. I expect this is similar to how things work with OnX, though I have not used it. Google maps is integrated into the VECSS application so you can actually place a point using Google maps without ever leaving the VECSS app as it is essentially using Google maps as a plugin. I don't belive this sort of functionality is present with the other mapping applications.

Faster readout speed is always nice, but I have to admit it has not given me any issues. It takes me a little time to pick up the landmarks, so readout speed has not been an issue.

It is supposed to snow at the hunter match this coming weekend, which should be a good test of inclement weather.

Yeah, I think it’s a psychological thing that happens when I’m on the clock. Lol. In reality the returns aren’t that bad.

I ran these at the Blue Mountain NRL Hunter match in Oregon a few weeks ago and had no problems. We had some light rain / mist and fog in the mornings. No problems out to 900 ish yards. The DOPE provided through the onboard AB was spot on throughout both days with varying temps and weather conditions.

I’ve used mine for nearly 50 days of hunting last fall and PRS / NRL. Absolutely excellent in all ways. Highly recommended.

My only gripe is I wish the return with the AB solution was a bit faster. When you're on the clock it seems like it takes forever, in reality it’s not that bad but it would be nice to have it a little faster.

The glass is second to none and a pleasure to use for days on end. The LRF works well in real world conditions where light fog, precipitation and air particulate are a real thing. I’ve had better returns in ranges with these in poor conditions than by partners who run Kilos and El Ranges. Definitely a pricy tool but worth it if you spend a lot of time on glass and need a reliable LRF / ballistic tool.
