    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    Don't expect to range a small rock at 8k, but you should be able to hit the side of a white barn, for example. See the manual for target types and expected ranging distances, which will be best-case (and you will likely see lower than with overcast/snow/etc like you've mentioned in some...

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    They also suck in a lot of ways. The optics are great, but the displays are awful, and they've been slow/flaky with wireless (my Leicas). The new Leicas with AB elite in them should fix this, but they'll have the same downsides as the Kilos (assuming you don't have a dud like @Huskydriver )...

    20" 7mm barrel - which cartridge (LA)?

    Well, already went with a 280AI. Just need to put together a dummy round and get a reamer made. I have a long action Lone Peak Fuzion incoming for the build.

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    You’re reading the same forum we are. As far as I’ve read, I only see one report of it here. Mine did not have an issue with it. Did you see more?

    Yes, the compass needed calibration, which it asked me to do when I went into the compass menu as noted. I don’t think there’s any current way to display the compass heading on the main display, or at least I don’t remember finding one in the manual. Hopefully they’ll add that option if enough...

    Mine definitely did not have all those issues. I’d call Sig and send it in, they should square that away.

    Seems like your temperature sensor is off. That would toss the RH measurement off, too. Did you ensure your temperature was in auto and not manual? Perhaps it came set to manual hence the errant value. Also, did you try without the Kestrel paired? That’s really where these shine.

    ADM UIC 10A - Feedback needed please

    My ADM UIC upper/lower sets aren’t super tight. They aren’t clackity-clack, but they are not bank vault either. I can’t speak to their pre made rifles, though. Best ambidextrous setup out there, though. It’s nice to have bolt release and magazine drop as two different functions.

    Can you make some that are soft open/close? In other words - no noise. I had to stop using flip caps on my rifles because they would scare game.

    Just got off the phone with Sig about the left eye focus issues, and they are having me RMA mine to them. Just a head's up for anybody else running into this, it sounds like it isn't expected.

    Yes. You adjust the right diopter to make the display clear, focus using the center focus on an object using your right eye, then adjust the left diopter to match (in theory). The problem I’ve run into is I cannot adjust the left diopter enough to bring it into focus following this procedure. I...

    Well, I may have the same issue then. I’ll get my eyes checked soon. My last exam had my vision 20/20 or better but one eye was worse than the other. Do you remember if you had a refraction test? (Which one is better, one or two?)

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    Have you considered getting your eyes checked? I’m not saying this in jest - I have the same problem with the 10ks, but I also know one of my eyes is worse than the other. The left eye diopter is bottomed out, and I need a little more. I suspect it’s just my eyesight needing correction more than...

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    Sig10k is better for the areas I’ve tested. Full disclosure - I returned the BR4s as the display was unreadable to me more often than not when used in the field. The Sig definitely ranges faster (which is nuts; the BR4 is already VERY fast) and the glass is better in the Sig K10k, optically. The...

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    I agree, the entire value of these is built in AB Elite coupled with the fast return of corrections. If you’re pairing with a Kestrel for solutions, what’s the point - you might as well get better glass with BT. I get tired of BT links failing/results taking a while/etc with Kestrel-paired RFs...

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    I just received mine. Blue tint is there when looking around indoors at white/off-white walls, but much less noticeable in the field. It's still there, and definitely something I wish was different, but it is definitely not like looking through dark blue tinted sunglasses. Glass seems pretty...

    Sig Kilo 10k ABS

    My Kilo10k finally shipped (or at least the label was created) so I imagine it'll arrive later this week. I'll stop by and leave a quick review once it comes in. I've had a lot of RFs, to include the newer Leicas (but not the Geovid Pro 32s) and the Revic, so I'll try to do a quick comparison...

    The BIG 3 Bino/Rangefinders (or 4?) Swaro EL RF, Leica 3200’s , Sig 10K or Ziess?

    Are RFs lifetime purchases for you? I swap them every 3-5 years or so as technology improves significantly, so for me, lifetime warranty < glass quality/RF performance/display/ballistic calculation/etc. I’ve not had to use warranty once on any that I’ve owned (knock on wood).
