    Latest in binos with a reticle?

    The Vectronics Radical X comes in 8x and 10x. If you add the range enhancers, the 10x will become 14x. The glass is great in the Vectors so I'd assume it's the same in the radicals.

    6mm max

    Mine is the Saturn/Liberty barrel from BC Precision Ballistics, not SOLGW. I'm planning on putting together an SBR with one of the SOLGW 12.5", waiting until the 30 round mags become available.

    NX8 or Mk5? or?

    Yes, i can't tell you exactly why though. I've never put much time behind it. But most of the PRS shooters that use mk5's prefer the 5-25.

    NX8 or Mk5? or?

    The MK5 5-25 with a PR-2 reticle would be the best choice of the two for your use. NF ATACR would be a good choice if you want to go with NF. Also take a look at the Vortex Gen 3 Razor. Very good glass for the price and you should be able to get a pretty good military discount through Vortex.

    Precision Rifle Gear Just getting started, looking for gear advice.

    In order of importance: 1. Good suppressor cover. You won't be able to see very well once the can heats up after a couple of shots. Armageddon gear, Cole Tac and Burn Proof Gear are some of my favorites. 2. Ballistic Computer. Apps such as Geoballistics, 4DOF and AB Quantum are great and will...

    You use them like you would a wind rose. While looking at target, put in the wind direction and speed. Wind is relative to DOF in the binos. So if you turn to engage another target in a different direction, you must adjust wind direction. If you connect your kestrel, then you can use true wind...

    That's happened to me once. Lately it hasn't been giving me those problems. I usually can just do half of the chicken dance and they'll be calibrated again.

    I have a service ticket in with Vectronix about the issue. Still waiting to hear back. What does work is just using target card on the kestrel. My work flow right now is to go into target card on the kestrel and click down, range target 1, click down, range target 2... etc. Then I switch...

    Vector X problems

    First I've heard of anything like that. Have you tried swapping the battery?

    Garmin Foretrex 901 and the system

    @docUSMC Since the update i cannot connect my kestrel elite to the 901. It picks up my vectors just fine, but only connects them under the applied ballistics menu on the 901, which i guess would be the same as the kestrel. Has me thinking I cannot have both connected at the same time. Either...

    Gordon-ish Setup with OCM5 Question

    That barrel won't work. The step down indexes inside the collar. You'd need an SPR profile barrel to be made for the ops collar to work. Like Trigger Monkey said above, the OTB or Collar from Otter Creek is the best bet.

    Vector X - Just a quick review.

    The good thing about the vectors is that you have the option to use the onboard sensors, kestrel, manual inputs and nearest station internet inputs through the app. So if you have these sitting in the sun on a tripod, you have several other options. and you can toggle temp, pressure and humidity...

    Garmin Foretrex 901 and the system

    Got a software update this morning. Went to their website to see the update details, but only found last year's march update the most recent published. It looks like they may have fixed some of the wind issues in target card. Only thing I can tell so far without taking them outside is that the...

    Every road and highway around here is under constant construction. It never fucking ends. been that way for at least 30 years.

    Oh yeah, we're talking about 2 different things. I've only tried target card on a separate device with the 901, not the kestrel itself. "unusable target data received" is what will show on a kestrel when paired to the vector when the range is too close (less than 10 yds) or if you get a bad...

    It seems since covid, they don't give a shit about anything. Unless you're driving like a complete jackass

    lol, you caught our yearly snowstorm. Don't worry, you won't have that shit down here near San Antonio. But be careful on the way, we don't know how to drive in this shit.

    Burnt bean in Seguin is legit. Worth a stop. and since this is your first trip to Texas, we have a thing called breakfast tacos so just be prepared for that. The more run-down ghetto looking the building is, the better the tacos. This is only for south of Austin. North of that real mexican food...

    I can see that. Especially a 2 day match where you can load the match book into your kestrel the night before. The vectors are really only good as a spotter and confirming range to the targets. I still use my leupold mk4 more than the vectors for PRS. At least until my range enhancers show up...
