What is the Best Scope for Hunting? (And Why Almost Everyone Chooses Wrong)

What is the best scope for hunting? For nearly every big game hunter, a 1-6X or 1-8X LPVO — and if your first reaction is “I need more magnification,” this article is written for you. Independent data sets put the average big game shot at roughly 130-145 yards, nearly half are taken inside 100, most cartridges hit their ethical ceiling around 400, and every bit of extra magnification costs you field-of-view exactly when you need it most.

Tango Fire 4000 vs Sightlok RF-1

Tango Fire 4000 or a Sightlok RF-1 with a handheld rangefinder? We judged both on eight criteria — ranging performance, beam quality, environmental sensors, firmware reliability, triggering a range, ranging without pointing your weapon, ballistic software and support. The Sightlok RF-1 and Sig KILO2200 combination wins six, environmental sensors are a tie, and the Tango Fire 4000 wins one.

Sig WMLRF KILO WARP Rangefinder – Potentially Huge Implications

Sig Sauer’s much-anticipated weapon-mounted laser rangefinder (WMLRF), the KILO WARP, will be released soon. The KILO WARP uses the same engine and laser from the SIG KILO 10K and comes with the Applied Ballistics Elite (AB Elite) on board. Straight off the bat, one concern is the Bluetooth remote. Will there be delays introduced by Continue Reading…

Review of Sig KILO5K – Problems, Pros, and Cons

Problem #1: Sig Forcing Users to Update Firmware and Disabling BDX Scopes and Rangefinders if the User Declines, and these Firmware Updates Are Known to Brick Rangefinders. When you connect your BDX to the BDX app, Sig checks the version of your rangefinder firmware. If Sig has decided your firmware needs updating, the BDX app Continue Reading…

Honest Sig KILO8K-ABS Review – List of Known Problems

Problem #1: Firmware updates can brick the KILO8K and Sig disables the unit if you don’t update the firmware. You’re heading out for a day of shooting, you connect to the App, and suddenly you’re forced to either update the firmware, or Sig disables the rangefinder.

Advantages of LPVO For Hunters

This learning journey for us started in 2009 reading competition shooting expert Zak Smith’s Long Range Optics Update on his Demigod LLC website. Zak writes: “How much magnification do you need? The answer is less than you might think. The scope needs to provide a clear image of the target for a well-defined sight picture. Continue Reading…

Don’t Buy Garmin Xero X1i Before Reading This Review and List of Problems

Should you buy a Garmin Xero X1i? Absolutely not. The Garmin Xero X1i’s fixed 3.5X magnification is wrong for crossbows, its field-of-view is way too narrow, and it’s overpriced at $1,400. The Garmin Xero X1i also sits too high and won’t take standard scope rings.

Don’t Buy Vortex Impact 4000 Before Reading This

Should you buy a Vortex Impact 4000? Probably not. Fifteen documented problems, led by a wide 45-degree slash-shaped beam that struggles around brush, a Bluetooth remote that drains batteries or makes you wait to reconnect, battery and display failures in cold weather, a calibration routine that defeats a lot of owners, and a blindingly bright night display.

Burris Oracle X Problems

Should you buy a Burris Oracle X? Probably not. 2X is the lowest magnification it offers, giving less than half the field-of-view of a 1X scope, the battery drains while the scope is switched off, the mount works loose and won’t hold zero, and you can’t range anything without pointing your crossbow at it.

WARNING:

You are attempting to purchase a Sightlok RF-1 mount with no mounting accessories. If you do so, you will only be able to mount it using some non-standard route like bolting it to your MLOK handguard, buying a clamp from a 3rd party, or using it with a tripod. Are you sure you want to do this?
