    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...

    I've found that only half the chicken dance needs to be done 99% of the time.

    They seriously need to correct this. Hopefully it's just a firmware update. Can't see why not. Every single AB device has this feature, Garmin took quite a while to get it right on the 901, but it's finally there. And it's not only multiple target engagements. I'd like to have a wind direction...

    Each target has to be manual, which sucks if you are using these as a stand alone solver. The binos by themselves only calculate wind relative to DOF. If you're using with a kestrel or garmin device, it will use true wind direction, but don't use the vector's target card feature (there's a...

    6mm ARC vs 6mm Max

    He was talking about the 80 grain bullets, not the heavies.

    Just pointing out that you may need to accept that when in auto, also the focus knob seems to be about the same on every unit I've seen, which matches what you described.

    6mm max

    oh wow... You're not gonna speed up too much. maybe 30-50 FPS. I'm not sure why they don't have CFE listed on their load data with the 90 grain bullets, but it's the way to go if you're looking for any kind of speed. TAC hit pressure in the low 2700's for me.
