    Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

    No, it's legit. I shot a prs match with my mk12 for fun with the black arc 77's just to test them out. Average velocity was 2870 from an 18" barrel and the accuracy was on par with my mk 262 clones.

    There must be something wrong. Or maybe you're just different, kind of doubt that though. These are just as easy to get behind as the fury's, but so much better. I do however find them easier to get behind than swaros for some reason, i can never get the eye cups just right on those. The RRS...

    I actually never turn Bluetooth on for the kestrel, I find it easier to just input the values manually on the 901 than messing with connecting.

    The vector, 901, kestrel cannot all be connected at the same time. Only 2 at a time. For something like NRL it's best to manually update wind speed and direction before the stage on 901 with kestrel and have the vectors connected, so turn Bluetooth off on kestrel for the whole match. Workflow is...

    Yep, still waiting on mine.

    No, in the case of connecting these to a garmin or kestrel the vectors only send range, DOF and inclination. The 901 will actually do the calculation. The connecting device must also have AB for them to communicate.

    I guess that changed with an update. Declination wasn't originally a menu option, nor is it in any of manuals or quick start guide. It is there now and magically knew my exact location (I never manually entered it).

    No, that just calibrate the compass. I believe simply connecting the app to them will update the latitude.

    Vortex Fury and Kestrel Workflow Recommendations

    The kestrel and Garmin connection to my vectors has been great. When I ran my Garmin 501 with my furys it was a pain in the ass keeping them connected. I had to turn the "on" time of the furys to their max of 90 seconds and go through the menus and manually connect them before starting a stage...

    Vortex Fury and Kestrel Workflow Recommendations

    You're better off not connecting a kestrel to the fury's, the connection isn't that great. For hunting, I had the best outcome entering wind manually in wind capture mode. For PRS, you wouldn't want to get your dope from the Fury's, an AB kestrel would be better.

    Send It vs SG Pulse

    I ordered both, kept the Pulse. Set up on the back of the rifle it's pretty in your face, even in the sun, and no need for a fiber kit. It's super easy to use the app to change brightness, see battery level, calibrate and more. The battery will easily last a couple days, plenty for a 2 day...

    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    Hell no, the MK12 is a vibe and it's still one of my favorites to shoot.

    Glad to hear you finally got a nice pair. maybe the first replacement was a return they accidentally sent out.

    It's really hard to beat the vectors and the 901 combo for a target card in a NRL style match. The connection is solid and you'll have the card on your wrist. For PRS, I just use these to verify and spot. I don't even bother connecting to kestrel. Even though you could quickly fill out the...

    It's been a while since I read their patent, but I believe it was about pointing the binos into the wind direction and clicking one button to capture wind direction. Kestrel did that first, but if the patent only pertains to binos/optics you should still have a workaround by manually entering...
