I thought you said second focal plane scopes are 100% worthless. LMFAO!
Feel free to quote where I said exactly that. I’ve killed more in a single week with SFP scopes than a lot of “hunters” will kill in their lifetime. For medium to long range use SFP introduces potential issues that do not need to be there. I’ve killed a bunch of animals with scopes on muzzleloaders that never had a single round put on paper. I’ve killed deer after mounting a scope without ever firing a shot before killing the animal. I’ve killed them with iron sights, peep sights, BSA’s, Leupolds, Vortex, Zeiss, Swaro, etc, etc, etc. So what. Because it can hit a 12” target at 50 paces it’s “good”. No. A scope is supposed to steer bullets correctly and consistently. A toaster is supposed to toast my bread. If it burns, I’m not happy just because the bread is edible.

Is a guy that kills 30 elk on a high fence, as good as a guy that’s killed 30 wild elk? Do does count? Do tree stand killed deer count? How bout does? Culling does constitutes a good “hunter” and good equipment??

I know a guy in Britain that earned his living as a professional game manager for 20 years. He was under contract to keep the muntjac, roe deer, red deer and sitka within carrying capacity on over 20 estates. If he failed to meet his quotas he would lose his contracts and not get paid. He was required under those contracts to kill over 600 of the various deer per year and did so every year. I guess he didn't know what he was doing or shoot enough or kill enough because he used a Tikka 695 chambered in .270 topped with a Swarovski scope to meet his quota's.

Bushnell EliteTactical DMR/HDMR/ERS/XRS/LRHS/LRTS
The Bushnells aren’t as solid as they were, because Bushnell got rid of the people who were responsible for bringing them to fruition.
Formi, Was it George and Pat, that you are referring to? Or were there others, such as mil/leo? Thanks, Jason

How old are you. Also very brave to hunt a gun that wasn’t zeroed! was wondering when you were going to become human for us mortals. I prefer SFP for hunting and toast is [bleep], biscuits and gravy is where it’s at.

They helped, or at least George did. I’m not sure how much Pat was involved beyond the LRHS. However the drivers were the guys that ran the tactical/competition division.

Too bad those guys are gone. Seems like they made a lot of progress with the short/fast tactical scopes, then the LRHS/LRTS scopes. Jason

Jud, I think the point is that all of us can appreciate a truck that starts more reliably. No such thing as a truck that starts too consistently or a bullet that performs too predictably! It doesn't hurt to push manufacturers to bring us better and better products. A man's hunting skills and activities should not be confused with his desire for the most dependable/functional equipment he can possibly get.
