Chasing Cows in New Mexico 2019 LIVE

Couple of 30 Noslers, 300WSM, 6.5 SAUM.

Of course the Swaros were on top followed up by the new UHD 18 power Vortex Razors.
Very very close though. For the $700 hundred dollar difference they are going to sell a lot of them.
Then the 15 power Kiababs. They came in last but not giving up much. Just not as crisp of detail looking into the shadows.

The mountain that you see in the pic is 5 miles from us. We glassed up 4 bulls this morning on that mountain and were able to give each Bino a good test.


How do you like 18x vs 15x? A noticeable impact of smaller FOV vs more zoom?

later in the day I found a single cow bedded and could only see half of her head and part of her neck. She was at 581 yards across a wooded flat. If I left the ridge I was on I wouldn’t be able to find her again. So I set up and waited for her to stand. Waited over 2 hours. Only to miss the shot. Very disappointed but see if I can even the score tomorrow.

The view through the 15 Swarovski and the 18 UHD Vortex is pretty equal. So not a noticeable difference in the power and FOV.
The 15 power Kiababs Are slightly noticeable that they don’t pull the sight picture in as close. But very very small difference.
